My guess would be Go since I've heard that as a common complaint.

That would make for some interesting posts. "How X promotes wishful simplification," for various values of X. I imagine some common traits would be probably be "X makes simple things simple," with "it makes hard things look like simple ones." But there's also "X has defaults that Just Work" with "until they don't." I don't think I'd include assembly, C, or Java in those categories. Python? Maybe; "batteries included" is starting to break down. Go? Yep. Goroutines and channels usually work well for simple stuff, often for more complicated, and the core libraries follow that pattern. Model failures tend to be buried and solved when the service is turned off and back on. Rust? Don't think so; its schtik is making hard things into blockers. Web frameworks? Yes, oh very yes. Lisp? "Simple? Blink blink. Oh, you mean elegant."

Not who you're replying to, but Tcl was that language for me. Dead-simple syntax, documentation, and behavior. I loved it. But also dead-simple tools. And if you wanted to do anything that wasn't a "solved problem" already, you had to write your own library.

When I switched my focus to Python, everything was more effort but I could also do _much_ more with it.

I was purposefully vague heh. Trying not to start a language flame.. i do that enough in the actual language threads lol.

I will say someone here was right though. :)
