We all love our little language wars: the vitriol, the expletives, the dank memes that accompany them.

You may recall, as your friendly neighborhood Anonymous Rust Dev, that I’ve been magnanimous and kind to the Python language. This is because I’m above it all – I can find the beauty in any language if I look hard enough, and I’m willing to give credit where it’s due.

But even I have my breaking point, which I’d like to explore today. How clunky does a language need to be to make itself my foe?
