I'd like you and the parent comment to provide one example of "magic strings" in Python and Javascript.

Javascript has really bad type coercion, no doubt. But there is nothing on the language that is built upon these concepts.

And I don't get the comparison between Rails (a framework that, indeed, does use a lot of "magic" in the naming of the classes) to programming languages.
