Why does language design continue to be a subjective topic? its not like computers need cultures !
Computers don't use programming languages. Thats why we need interpreters and compilers.
I think programming languages will always be subjective, but I could imagine a time where programming languages are obsolete for almost all use cases.
Imagine an AI with advanced NLP, that allows you to describe to a computer what you want done in your native language. Then the "programmer" never has to worry about the implementation details, just what they want done. Basically like the audio computer interface in Star Trek TNG.
