I'm not trying to get into a R vs. Python argument, both have their strengths, but is it really true that R doesn't have anything like Pymc? https://cran.r-pro

Unless you can help here, I see alot of pre coded models and older samplers, but nothing with a flexible JIT for user extensible variab;es and autodiff for newer HMC and NUTS type samplers. Exception being STAN, but that is its own C++ modeling language, can't talk to R functions , is more verbose than PYMC 3 and doesn't do discrete variables (unlike pymc3).
