So language/tooling choice should be a sort of a Harrison Bergeron* affair, to make sure that the least able to program will still be able? I'm not so sure I agree with that. Nor do I agree with its obvious counter-proposal, meritocracy.
I have heard of teams using "communication" to bridge these gaps but I know little of that technology.
