Wait... cageface wrote: "but the verbosity really gets in the way" and you write "I'm much more productive with ruby because it's so expressive.". I am not a native speaker but isn't that contradictory?

Verbosity is a subjective assessment that concepts require too many or complex, specialised words to express compared with some other approach.

Expressiveness is subjective too, but in this context talks about ability to express concepts in elegant or clear ways.
