I'm a researcher and I loved prototyping in Perl once upon a time ago. It was so fast and easy to get an idea out. I've played with Rust too, and have done a project in it. I like it too, but as a necessity, not out of a strong love. I do love the package manager Rust has though. It's so nice to not have to worry about that kind of thing.
Once Raku has dataframes, and it is stable, I'll definitely be checking it out.
