You're writing Python and Javascript right? Those languages are extremely easy to write in (which conversely means the legibility is likely to be poor). People maintaining legacy systems in systems level languages aren't going to be able to produce as much code as people writing Python and Javascript.

Yes, mostly Python and JavaScript and SQL. I'm dabbling a little more with Go these days too.
I do want to pick up Go. I'm also interested in learning Zig, but I'm worried about employability (no knock on Zig, it looks pretty cool).

Anyway, sorry if any of my comments seemed harsh. I always appreciate your posts and comments.
