I think the "final words" are the definition of 'obsequious'. Say something of real substance, and commit to it:

"Haskell and Scala are both very powerful and practical programming languages, but with different strengths and weaknesses. Neither language is perfect and I think there is room for improvements in both. I will definitely continue to use both of them, at least until something better shows up. Some new interesting ones on my radar are Rust, ATS and Idris."

Because someone isn't a fanboy and isn't just stupidly commiting himself to one thing, than he's obsequious? Well, I would call this a smart person.
