Don't try to evaluate the languages in isolation, because it's the libraries and ecosystems of the languages that make all the difference in your life. If you evaluate Erlang the language in isolation, you might hate it.

Python has its sweet spots of amazing things too, defined mostly by its easy to use libraries for doing everything from image processing, language processing, face recognition, and you name it.
