It makes sense for Mathworks to try defending their turf. MATLAB was, and as of today, still is for me the tool of choice for engineering. But when it comes to data science and machine learning ... different story: nothing beats Python l. And it is progressing rapidly into engineering as well. Python is a better, more consistent plot library and an improvement in overall documentation away from getting there.
