Not to detract from your point, but there have [been](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/help-with-binary-trees-benchmark-games-example/37307) [a](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/lhe-biofast-benchmark-fastq-parsing-julia-nim-crystal-python/39747) [few](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/slow-gzip-streaming-in-julia-but-not-in-python/56346) [threads](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/bad-performance-of-eachline-on-stdin/55701) on not-so-competitive IO and string processing performance. From what I can tell, there aren’t any inherent trade-offs at play like you’d have with the compiler/GC and TTFP, just more development time/resources required.
