They simply aren't interested in considering anything which strays too far from their established intellectual framework.

I guess it's all relative to some extent, in that given where the intellectual framework was at in academia during the time they began their post-grad work, no doubt they feel that their ideation has evolved a long way from that point. Yet I too have this nagging feeling that they'd be better off not having entered it in the first place, as being anchored in it tends to act as a drag effect holding them back.
