In other words, you're intenionally limiting your horizon because of convenience?

Not really practically but yes in theory? The JVM is host to many languages with different paradigms and it is not like I don't futz around with other stuff. I refuse to write serious code in poorly tooled languages and at this point in my career there are also some areas of exploration I just don't care about (e.g. machine level programming with ASM or C/C++ and web dev with JavaScript).

Ah, okay. What I didn't quite get from your original post was that you were talking about professional-level coding. That makes sense, I guess.

To be fair, life is indeed too short to waste it trying to wrangle unusable tools, particularly when potential gains are slim to none.
