Well, I don't think you and I disagree on the premises, with the exception of you believing that I make some outrageous general claims -- which I did not.

I could have misinterpreted other people in the past -- very possible. But I also stopped caring about "battles for supremacy" a long time ago and at this point in life and career I simply use my experience and brain to go where my work is more productive, deterministic and fulfilling. To me immutability, share-nothing actors, strong vertical scalability (where a lot of PLs and runtimes do well, not only my favorites) and DX (like live prod REPLs and generally trivial observability) are those axii along which I thrive.

You and a few others seem to have emotional reactions to this which, I assure you, are very unnecessary. I ain't threatening neither your livelihood nor preferences.
