Perl (sorry for sleeping before answering :-). I've pointed the Python guy to Moose, "Perl Best Practices", etc. Didn't help. Sigh... It is sad when people don't stop the language wars garbage after turning 20. :-( At least he didn't argue to replace the toilet paper with bills... In my anecdotal experience, this seems to be a not totally unusual Python thing. (One True Way, etc.) (And before someone starts arguing about that it might be motivated with a rewrite in some cases -- they guy is so new, he doesn't know the particulars for that area.)
