Mojo has a different scope than Julia and Python, it targets inference workloads.

Polars is a dataframe library. Yes, it features vectorized operations, but it is focused on columnar data manipulation, not numerical algorithm development. I might say that this is narrow framing, people are looking at Julia through the lens of a data scientist and not of an engineer or computational scientist.

Most of my gripes are when trying to use Julia the way a software engineer would use a programming language.

Most "data scientist" code is exploratory (it's a prototype or a script for an one-off exploration) in nature. And my main gripe is that making that code production ready and maintainable over a long period of time is so difficult that I would switch to Rust instead. If I were going to switch to Rust, I might as well start with Python.
