That's really surprising to me. Whenever I tried Perl it always turned into a painful mess. When I started using Ruby I felt it was the best of Perl and the best of ... Smalltalk I suppose — and I never looked back. Maybe I'm missing something about Perl? |

You better follow the best practices for Perl and it is like the other scripting languages. Check the Modern Perl book.
My reason to prefer Perl is because it is fun and the culture is good. The business case for Perl is CPAN. E.g., check Moose and additions like http://search.cpan.org/~flora/MooseX-Declare-0.35/lib/MooseX...
