I can see that. A little while ago I was working at a startup and we had a node.js thing that was really crucial to the business that did some gray hat browser automation stuff to scrape TikTok (the users opted into it, but TikTok itself was less permissive). For some reason a person wanted to move part of it to Python to orthogonally solve some other actual problem. They passed me the code and Pandas was there to effectively do an HTTP request and parse JSON and I thought to myself "woah, I'm not in Kansas anymore" -- I ended up not having to worry about it because I ported the idea back to the more mature node system and that turned out to be viable over time.

Libraries can overtake aspects of a language for better and worse. Ruby seemed really tied to Rails and that was great for it as an example.
