You haven’t tried a wide variety of languages then. I have found the language chosen massively shifts what is possible to write and what is convenient to write.
Usually different languages Are tied to different platforms so this isn't really anagolous.
Indeed. You have to pick a 4x4 or motorbike or limousine .. often before you know where you're going.
I'd think a language tied to a platform only can be considered if you want your product to be tied to such platform.
