What's been presented as an indictment of Julia (in Yuri's own post and after) is the fact that members of the Julia community have vocally downplayed problems and played the victim when quality concerns have been raised, as I think you're doing. Do you want to convince everybody you've "won" "a lose-lose"? Or do you want to write correct programs?
I like Julia, the language and the tech. I really hope this hostile attitude towards criticism and growth fades eventually, because I'd like to be able to use and trust it at some point.
