Weird idea.

Either i don't get it or i'm wasting my time doing code review for years now with a surprisingly positive effect which shouldn't be as 'reasoning about code is scam'?

I also reason about code to determine the best language due to features, community size, potential workforce etc.

> to determine the best language due to features

This. The choice of language should be driven by the 'business' domains/areas you need to cover. Do you need it to be scalable? Do you need security? What type of security do you need? It is the requirements that drive the design, not the other way around. And choice of language is not the requirement.

First you decide 'blue' and 'which blue' then you decide the brand of paint. Not the other way around.
