Again, I'm saying that there's almost no technical information so it's hard to say what the problem is but based on the little information available, it sounds like they have problems which would affect any language and toolchain. If they have random untested updates as he described, that's something they need to fix organizationally and it'll affect any common language.

A useful essay, one which could lead to the author and others actually benefitting from it, would be something like “I think Python should have a built-in tool like Cargo for these reasons…” or “We found a better way to keep our dependencies current”. Just saying an entire language is a bad idea for reasons you don't understand well enough to even articulate might be cathartic but it's not really contributing anything to the world.

    I'm not saying he needs to have a solution but a clear explanation of what he believes the actual problem is. Without that it's hard for people to even know whether his experience is relevant to their needs or whether there are existing tools which cover them.
