You might be right. But I have been reading forum posts to this effect for fifteen years, and eventually eveyone switches off. Even if you are right, would you trust your career focus to a software community who had got it this wrong for that long? I am looking forward to checking out a future perl 6 but part of that is now duke nukem forever curiosity - what on earth could be in it that kept those smart people at it for that long?
