The proliferation of Python has only made my feelings worse. Try running a 6 month old Python project that you haven't touched and see if it still runs. /eyeroll

In fact, python is my go to these days for anything longer than a 5 line shell script (mostly because argparse is builtin now). On the other hand, running a newly written python script with a 6 month old version of python, that's likely to get you into trouble.
