If you write ML code for money, you are a pro, the end. Python is not perfect, but everything else is worse, far worse. What is the product that falls out of a ML pipeline ? ML pro-tip: its not hand-crafted artisanal code.

Case in point, you don't care if it comes out as poop because you're getting shit done. Hell it seems like you don't even care if you have to wade in it for another 5 years.
