Polars definitely doesn't "easily" beat DF.jl on all tasks. Yes, I agree, on average polars is a bit faster for many of the simple workflows, but I certainly don't think that's unconditionally true. It's especially less true when you might want to do something out of the ordinary with your series --- in Julia it's trivial to just extract that as a vector and loop over it (fast!). In polars, one would have to make sure their function can be appropriately vectorized.
