I'm not denying Python is an amazing language. I have to use it for machine learning, and I've grown to really like it since the first time I used it in the 90's.
Just seems odd. Like, if you had a catering business and you drove a Ford Escort, and decided to add a bunch of trailers to it because it had too little capacity in the back seat. And then tried to optimizes those trailers because it was too inefficient, rather than just buying a delivery truck suited for delivering food. OK, that was an awkward analogy.
I'm not, I was being lighthearted. Sorry, bad joke I guess.
But to the other poster's point, some people use what is natural: PERL is so absolutely burned into my brain after 10 years writing CAD flows with it, that when I need to munge a file I've already written the code in my head before I've even opened my text editor.
That's why I use PERL for my web server. ;)
