That’s certainly a valid perspective. Another one, “how can we make a powerfully expressive programming language feel malleable, accommodating and pleasant in the hands of experienced devs?” I equally valid. As someone who writes Ruby I appreciate the language every time I use it. There isn’t another language that has given me such satisfaction - so far. Most accommodate the interpreter / compiler. This one accommodates humans.
