Imagine if you were a C developer who needed to create some web do-dads, this is probably a fantastic stack. If there was 1 right solution for the perfect stack we'd all be using it.
I get that languages are just tools, but each tool has problems it is better at solving. My original comment was pointing out that this stack is ill-suited for the task for which it has been built.
