Hardly. As you said to Chris, that's an opinion that you get to have - but trying to claim that your opinion is anything other than that (just an opinion) is pointless. > Feel free to offer a better solution if you like.

So what? What's the point in comparing Ruby with years-out-of-date Python? At this point you're clearly just looking for an argument, so I'll give up on this thread.
