It comes down to language preferences. I find Python to be the worst thing computer science has to offer. No nested scoping in functions, variables leak through branches and loops due to lack of scopes, no classic for loops, but worst of all, installing python packages and frameworks never ever goes smoothly.

I would like to love Jupyter notebooks because Notebooks are great for prototyping, but Jupyter and Python plotting libs are so clunky and slow, I always have to fall back to Node or writing a web page with JS and svg for plotting and prototyping.
