Even accounting for what you say, it's a short learning curve compared to most languages. It's not like there's any programming language in the world where you just read the manual through once and, boom, instantly you know exactly how to architect a multi-person-century project right out of the gate or something.

I have my favorites in this arena, but it's still hunting a large sea mammal with a harpoon. What you're suggesting is essentially avoiding hunting it altogether. We're not there yet.
