Scala goes quite far in the flexibility, maybe too far. Agreed.

But is python really so good? I'm not a heavy python user, but there are loops and list comprehensions and map. There are also optional type annotations now, should you always use them, or not? How about "a is b" or "a != b"? How about environments and build tools...

I think that go might have been a better model student.
