>Python is far better suited for this. Similarly, if you want to produce standalone executables, C++, Rust, Go or Nim are better.

That's the case now, because Julia made a design decision to focus on extreme composability, dynamism, generic codegen etc which involved compiler tradeoffs...but it's not inherent to the langauge.

For scripting, interpreted Julia is coming. For executables, small binary compilation is as well...particularly bullish on this given the new funding
