I was tired of dealing with TIMTOADI (there is more than one way to do it), one of Perl's catch phrases. More like there's more than 50 ways to do it. It sounds wonderful and liberating, and it is, but it also means that when you just want to read some docs, the docs go through all the different ways, when you just want to get something done right now. And reading others' code, no two solutions are the same. Are there benefits, sure, yes, but sometimes you just want to know the best practice. With Perl 6 having a learning curve, I thought I might as well use that time to instead learn Python, a language designed with the stated principle that there should be one preferred way to do things. Unfortunately I started learning Python just as the Python 2 vs Python 3 rift was at a peak. Sigh.
