And also there is no a single software thing except of maybe Common Lisp which scripts can overcome tens of years with keeping backward compatibility as a primary goal, I mean try to run any scripts from '10s '00s '90s in any other language except of CL. Software industry produces too shortliving things being promoted with bold and click-bait statements and when it breaks, typically because of becoming a legacy, they say you that you just need more software because your one is too old!
