You can just use Polars[0] instead of Pandas and easily beat both Pandas and DataFrames.jl
Pure Julia is faster than pure python, but there are non-pure python tools available in the python ecosystem for a ton of things.

Yes, I agree, on average polars is a bit faster for many of the simple workflows, but I certainly don't think that's unconditionally true. It's especially less true when you might want to do something out of the ordinary with your series --- in Julia it's trivial to just extract that as a vector and loop over it (fast!). In polars, one would have to make sure their function can be appropriately vectorized.
