This sort of feedback is just difficult for people to consume in a mature way. Many get defensive or weaponize it. Language design is hard to critique since it becomes so abstract making most comments superficial. But people in this situation often have some actual knowledge. The other situation is when the language devs actually listen to some of the feedback.

Language design is really goddamned hard and if you’re really good at it, you’re rewarded with a fan base that won’t give you permission to do it again for another ten or fifteen years.
