Agreed though personally for me I didn’t see great results until close to 8 languages used professionally. Once I knew about 5 of them I had a much easier time landing jobs despite being bad at whiteboarding.

edit: what I mean to really say here is that pragmatism, like any learning, doesn't just happen automatically. You can have a lot of languages under your belt but still only believe in one. You won't necessarily have it with more languages, but you're unlikely to have it if you know just one.
