If we removed dplyr, then R scripts would absolutely scream so I find the speed argument for 'why switch to X' unconvincing. If users cared so deeply about speed, almost no one would be using tidyverse instead we'd all be using base-R or data.table.

Multiple dispatch? Hmm is this really a problem that I'm going to come across in the real-world when 90% of our time is spent ingesting a poorly-formatted csv, doing some quick plots and perhaps building a model to test something out. If the goal of Julia is to replace R/Python then their priorities feel way off the mark
