Learning curve close to none?
I like that many times there's "the way" of doing things, but when I have to do something slightly outside the recommended way, I feel that the effort required outweights all the benefits.

“The way” of doing things depends on the language, and for example for me Python is very hard. It’s not my main stack but I use it regularly and after years I still can’t find "the way" of doing things by myself, I feel like I end up on stackoverflow way too often because of anxiety of not being idiomatic. It’s like there is an enormous meta knowledge very specific to the language. That’s not something I experience with other stacks.
