In general I think there’s something to be said for sticking with languages that match your model of approaching a problem. DHH gave a good, albeit a bit rambly, keynote on this topic once. He compared some of the tools selection conversations to the equivalent of people comparing gaming consoles purely by specs when in reality, picking a console mostly boiled down to what you subjectively enjoyed more. I like that idea as a rule of thumb and encourage people to start there and go with what feels right for them before making deeper choices. (Lots of nuance here, don’t want to delve too deep so please view from that context :) )
