you're being pedantic; i'm aware juliacomputing is not /the/ language. in fact it's an organization of people that maintain the language AND the juno ide.

what is the value proposition of julia? productivity of python with the speed of c (or some kind of tagline like this). a large part of the productivity of python is the fantastic set of tools around python. hence it's quite fair to judge julia proper on the polish of the tools that you need in order to be productive in julia.
