Totally agree - I just don’t see that as a distinguishing factor since we had a bunch of shell scripts break, too, as various CLI tools stopped behaving consistently.

I guess this is a YMMV thing. My experience is that Python rots more than shell scripts, but of course I understand that this may not be universally true, and depends a lot on what your scripts actually do (and, to a large extent, on how they're written, of course).
