As others' comments, it's totally different maintaining a successful business from launching one. The decision should be based on what value the language can provide.

I'm in a very python heavy company, and maintains the python architecture that are being used on hundreds of servers. The ugly part(lack of restriction, multiprocessing, distribution) quickly shows why it's not suited for very large system.

But I'm curious at which point, we would be so annoyed as to decide to rewrite the whole stuff.
