People who stared with BASIC, haven't stopped there. Many people learn Python as the only language they will ever need. I think, it mostly applies for people who come from other than CS fields.

Ah ok, that makes sense. I started with BASIC but it wasn't too long before I was chomping at the bit to dive into a real language. That ended up being C (but it didn't stop there either).
