Stabilization and proliferation of libraries; afaik its ecosystem is currently only really fulfilled for numpy/scipy/ml workloads

Seems Julia developers and evangelists main objective is to "kill Python", am I wrong?
They can have whatever goals they wish, but regardless, having an ecosystem like .net or python requires a critical mass of users; and once you have that, the language goals don’t even matter; they’ll just have libraries for everything, whether they like it or not.
