it is misleading because I was around 35 years ago, and very few people were using Python. Python did not become very popular until web frameworks and pandas became a thing in python.


if you doubt this, ask any llm "what was the first year where Python users surpassed the number of Perl users?"


I still don't understand why that makes what I wrote "misleading". I never said Python was popular 35 years, I just said that the age of the language was relevant to understanding why the packaging history is complex.
