I totally buy that argument, but there's probably not a huge overlap in the set of "common tasks" for R and python.

Pandas for Python is almost re-imaging of R (Base 0 instead of base 1 UGH) very closely and the "common task" match closely, but I still use R over Python.

Well then all the more reason to use R, if those are the set of tasks you want to do.
