it is already complicated. so i don’t want to learn another language. i want to become BETTER at using what is there, not have a language forced onto me. i want to make my tool set smaller, not learn more tools.

also, being able to use linux in an embedded system as a resource constrained developer is hugely important today. adding more tools means more dev cost.

Sounds like it's time to exit programming, buddy, because the world has some very bad news for you. Yeah, you'll have to keep learning tools. It's included in the big paycheck.
