> mono-language policies (or similar tight, top-down controlling of the language stack) are simply a matter of time. All companies enforce that as they mature.

Yea, that would be my cue to leave.

Indeed. Pick the right tool for the job.

Picking the tool just because it gets you lots of cheap disposable developers simply means you end up with lots of cheap disposable code.

Good for the current quarter’s C-suite bonuses, no doubt; maybe not so much for long-term business continuity when that code is critical to continuing business operations.

Something something price of everything and value of nothing.
