Nah, it's also a very fine language for getting an idea down quickly.

Might not have the niceties purists like, but perhaps that's exactly it's a great language for that.

It's like executable pseudocode, and unlike other languages, all the ceremony is optional.

People flocked to it way before it became a "must" for ML and CS thanks to that ecosystem becoming dominant.
