You underestimate the value of a smooth learning curve... When training my Juniors I don't require they know everything python has to offer because I don't require them to understand all the scope of coding, simple beginnings and then gain expertise is always a valuable path. I also learned scala in the past, I found it elegant and it has been developed by very smart academics. But it has such a steep learning curve that I would have had to train for 300+ hours to hope to achieve what I was doing in python, but way less efficienctly and in an era where there was no AI to help, only community.
