I can think of many cases where that is useful. It is important to remember not all workflows and needs are the same as yours.

I don’t really understand tour web dev comment either. Web devs are notoriously not interested in performance.

Maybe I don't understand web dev; only meant that when you have many users besides yourself (analyzing data) then performance matters more.

It's important to remember, wtf?

Then it goes both ways right? I think we need to also say "For most people Python is fine, if you need that extra speed, try Julia" instead of blanket praises of Julia as true competitor to Python (It doesn't even come close IMO).
