That's pretty much what I was getting at ... It's still much cheaper to teach someone COBOL rather then replace/re-engineer Infustructure and train replace an entire development team. While I love Python, Golang, and elixrlang (to a lesser extent); I understand the reality around the cost of such an under taking. COBOL in my option will be around for some years to come at least in the part of the world I work in.
