Java has a massive ecosystem yet we continue to see rapid replacement of backends in JavaScript (Node now Deno) and Golang. Each of those language ecosystems rapidly became both large (arguably too large) and robust.

Rust has been eating C++ lunch. Same rapid rise of ecosystem story.

Instead of forcing Python to be a language it isn't it might be more efficient and ultimately the "right choice" to invest the time in Julia.

Julia is great for numerical computing, it needs faster time to plot and more hands in the ecosystem. The former will be solved and the latter seems inevitable to me. Pitch in!
