Unfortunately, you are right - but mostly when discussing programming languages on the Internet. In forums like this, we (Julians) often want to make a case for Julia. Since most soon-to-be Julians come from Python, R or Matlab, it's natural to argue for Julia by arguing why Python and R is deficient. It's similar to how it's hard to argue for Rust without mentioning that C is unsafe. If C users kept insisting that the unsafe behaviour of C was not a real issue, Rustaceans would seem a lot more negative towards C.
