Instead of a blanket criticism, perhaps you'd like to suggest some alternatives that:

- Have simple, pseudocode-ish syntax

- Are useful for exploratory programming with good speed of development

- Have a comparable amount of high quality libraries available along with tooling for their installation and management (standard and third part)

- Have large talent pools available with experience ranging from fresh graduates to grizzled veterans, and backgrounds ranging from science and statistics to journalism to finance
