That's generally true. However, when the creator of a popular language/framework disses it himself, it carries a different kind of weight that can't be easily dispelled by your argument.

It doesn't read that Ryan Dahl dissed it. He dissed every language and their role in adding to the complexity of the thing that is called IT these days. And he tried to make the focus about the user of the software: as it should be!

"The only thing that matters in software is the experience of the user."
