Isn't this a general attitude? I think it applies to many programming languages, in particular at developers who know only their one favorite language. I learned Forth on a 6502 besides Basic and Assembler, and it was the language with the best performance/memory ratio. It was about 10 times slower than Assembler, and very efficient in memory consumption. Memory was a really big issue at that time. And Forth as a programming language is not bad. You just need a lot of discipline (like at Lisp) because it is so extremely powerful. I wonder why Forth isn't used for firmware since buggy code could be exchanged at runtime.
