I agree entirely! For many python users, it’s the only language they know. Often, they see programming in python, as part of their “identity” - so they’re overly invested in it, to the detriment of other wonderful languages, like awk. I used to code perl myself, back in the day - but I came to appreciate the simplicity of awk, and now it’s one of my favourites. I no longer code perl, as a consequence, as I believe awk to be far more elegant! I wouldn’t have done so, if I was overly invested in being a “perl programmer”.
