That's totally fair. But saying "python is hot garbage" makes you miss potentially miss out on say, the jupyter ecosystem, maybe new patterns and libraries, or just being able to maintain a python codebase when needed.

Of course, you don't have to do any of those things, but there is a difference between "python is not for me, I have better uses for my time" and "python sucks and there is no value whatsoever in it."

I personally have strong distaste for python, especially for bigger projects, but I see the good in it, and surely if someone comes to me with a cool python project I won't reject it outright because it's in python.
