Peter Norvig made a comment here that agrees with you about process and architecture over language (he was talking about why he started using python instead of lisp)
"In terms of programming-in-the-large, at Google and elsewhere, I think that language choice is not as important as all the other choices: if you have the right overall architecture, the right team of programmers, the right development process that allows for rapid development with continuous improvement, then many languages will work for you; if you don't have those things you're in trouble regardless of your language choice."
