Is having too many ways to solve a problem an issue for solo indie developers?

  Right? I don't get this persons sentiment and I don't understand how it relates to the post in particular.

    You still have to choose, and remember all the variants. Coming back to a Swift codebase after a few months in different languages is surreal, I can't remember what half of it means.

      Alright, I think I know what you mean - swift does have a peculiar way of completing tasks but I would also say C++ and ObjC do too but I also don't think there are too many ways. I find you can do apply java and javascript type thinking to swift but they're less preferred.

  It can be if you keep adding the new way of doing things and then need to debug code that jumps between all the different ways of doing things.
