Just imagine writing bash incorporating a sed script for something you can do with 20 keystrokes, then migrating the sed part to awk until it reaches 20 lines, then rewrite the whole thing to Python or somehow bridge it to the shell script - when you could have done the whole thing in Perl without feeling that it holds you back... |

This. I always feel like bash and pipes are always holding me back and resisting.
Python is just to verbose to exec/pipe/read/write.
The real issue is the it's really easy to shoot yourself in the foot with perl.
