That's a genuinely mean comment towards a new library which is using existing code to bootstrap itself. Julia does solve the two language issue, but not in all situations. Like I'll never write a driver in julia. But this mean spiritedness towards anything that's not perfect is disheartening.

And not instantaneously. Developer time being finite, using what works from existing libraries while waiting for a pure-julia implementation seems like an excellent solution.
