Are you assuming everyone complaining here is young, and this is their first language? Consider that maybe they're complaining because they've used older languages they liked more.
Often, not having a feature is preferable to having a feature designed or implemented poorly.
That wasn't my point. My point is if you had to write Fortran IV using an IBM 32xx terminal you wouldn't be quite so hyperbolic about modern Python.
Unless you are claiming you would rather return to writing Fortran IV than use Python because you like Fortran IV better, in which case I'm very confused.
Python's competitors are Lisp, OCaml, Swift, C# etc.
I prefer at least Lisp and OCaml.
Nobody's going to bother out OCaml or Lisp for web development, data science, or OS scripting where Python is most often used.
Not even MIT teaches lisp anymore.
That's their loss.
Lots of universities teach Scheme, particularly Racket. Although Python is more popular, even in that domain.
If you had to write Python, would you also want to quit software engineering? Would you go back to Fortran instead of Python?
Of course you're allowed to hate Python but someone saying "every time I write python I want to quit software" is either extreme hyperbole, some tangentially related issue like depression, or just no language at all would make them happy enough.
