Yeah it’s a silly question. It’s like going into a python thread and being like “why didn’t you implement all of this in Go or Rust?” Well, there’s a thousand reasons, and it’s really not even worth the time to unwrap this very reductive question that is really only going to turn into a language flame war for no reason.
