They aren't the same thing but there's basically no room between "these are the tools I know"-thinking and "if all you have is a hammer"-thinking.

Freely admit this is somewhat irrelevant though as most languages are the difference between a felling-ax and a splitting-ax or two sizes of screwdriver, as opposed to hammer vs drill.

Well, I assume most people have a handful of tools they are familiar with and choose from among them (although the proliferation JavaScript-based stuff absolutely everywhere might call that assumption into question).
