True, but this reminds me of a talk at the Scientific Computing with Rust conference where the researchers did the initial prototype in Julia because it was easy for them to implement and debug mathematical algorithms, but then the final product was in Rust because it better matched their requirements. While this is not what we’d like to hear, I think it’s interesting to see that some people do appreciate Julia’s expressiveness for these tasks, even though it doesn’t end up in the final product.
