What he said, "Also, Perl's library system, CPAN, is far more comprehensive than many languages", doesn't make sense, because he's comparing a "library" to "languages": apples and oranges.

Come on now, it's clear that he meant to compare CPAN to the corresponding module repositories of those other languages.
I was only taking what he literally wrote at face value. I'd expect a Perl programer to be more careful with punctuation that that. ;)
