The programmer is often more important than the PL.

Though most programmers will not modify the PL to fit their needs, hence the PL limitations become the programmers limitations.

It's easier for a programmer to learn a new PL (at the start of the project) than for a 500kLOC code base on GC-enabled JVM to migrate to Rust.
