As many of you know, I don't really care for Python that much. It's a pain to work in. The amount of time I've spent struggling with virtual environments, installing packages, sifting through versioning and dependency issues, performance, and general anguish is not funny at all.

The core of Python is a rotted husk, and the only reason it survives is because (a) it has an extremely approachable syntax, and (b) the ecosystem is so incredible that everyone has to use it by dint of network effects.
