Something that just happened, and I immediately realized it would be relevant to share here:
A friend of mine texted me a question about an issue he was having, and I texted back an answer with some Python code for illustration. I don't know if he has ever used Python for anything. I just assume it's an acceptable least common denominator for technical communication. Even if it turned out he was a copy of my friend from an alternative timeline where Python never existed, he would have no trouble reading it as pseudocode.
Try that with Perl!
