Agreed. It really irks me when people use the term "scripting language". Even if the term is valid in the context, they're actually using it to describe a language as inferior because it's not compiled. Many of the "engineers" at my work still don't consider me their equal because I program in JavaScript and not C#, which contains the almighty compiler and static type system 😂
