To be fair, I'm not so worried on this. Even if Jupyter was what introduced some (many?) folks to notebooks, that is fine.

I was soured as early advocates were pitching it as way more impressive than it is. With some being proud of themselves for realizing you can put a "pip install" at the top of the notebook, thinking that somehow made it repeatable. I recall senior engineers wanting notebooks to have prod access so that you could deploy from a notebook. And thinking they were making a good practice statement. Ugh.
