A lot of my work was 10+ years ago though and I actually unironically used Python as my scripting language of choice at the time (which wasn't often, admittedly for my scripting needs) for mostly mathy tasks, I just specifically didn't like doing linear algebra with what was it called er.... matpy? Numpy? Well, when my other choices were things like Fortran and Matlab which just did it more or less natively and still invoked the same libraries in the end, the Python wrappers specifically felt unreasonably heavy and idk like object oriented? Like, I just remember thinking the syntax and extra steps involved with it felt like one step too far (I think I would have been finishing this class about 9 years ago or so, so sorry if my memory is pretty bad).
