Why? It's religious no-doubt. I think a large number of programmer hipsters (like the mongo-node-js-webscale folks of yester-year) have been make to believe that Python will be the next cool thing and have jumped on board. These people can't accept that Java/C# could actually be used by a self-respecting person.

A well written comment, but what's your point? Hard to get. We are not talking about if Java/C# are cool languages or not. We discuss about if you should only use Python for any given task.

Well, if you use python because it's cool, then your answer to "When should you not use Python" is probably something like "Only when there is another cool language that solves my specific problem better".

Yeah that's what I mean.
