I wonder which one is currently the king (include all arbitrary metrics you can think of)? I guess 1.Go 2.Rust

These days I'd rather suffer through the verbosity of Go or strict memory semantics of Rust (which are no concern in most CLI applications) than write more than a dozen lines of Python. Personally, while I think the compiled world has settled onto a few very good languages, the scripting ecosystem still to this day leaves a lot to be desired.
For complex applications bash (or shellscript in general) is also rather ill-suited as it has a lot of footguns and can be hard to maintain.
