Cool! Is it because the Wolfram libraries and infrastructure are great, or is there something in the semantics of the language that makes this so nice?

For me, it’s a combination of many many convenient built-in functions, and high level constructs for functional and rule-based programming. I recently played with the language to get functionality similar to what R’s dplyr provides - it can give a sense of what kind of advanced “meta-programming” is possible.
