Fair. But to play devils advocate: one stated goal of Julia is to solve the “two languages” problem where developers prototype in {scripting language} and then reimplement in {system language}. So while Julia is meant to be as easy as Python, it also needs to be as powerful and flexible as Rust (or C or whatever). It’s supposed to be the “best of both worlds” and Rust lives in one of those worlds. If developers are better off prototyping in Python jupyter notebooks and then reimplementing in Rust than they are implementing in Julia, then I’d say the comparison is relevant. Maybe it’s an unfair standard and Julia can be a “better Python” without needing to be a full replacement of a systems language, but then Julia isn’t fully solving the two language problem, right?
