This applies to nearly every software project under capitalism.
You are correct however I think there are unique conditions that rust/js/python devs are living under that makes it more prevalent.
Why is Python being lumped into this? It's used in almost every project for managing builds and environments. Also really good for CLI/API stuff
Massive institutional presence in education, mit/bsd license culture, unexamined reliance on package/library manager.
I’m not mounting a criticism of the languages themselves, their usefulness or goodness (whatever that means), just using them to triangulate on the cohort of developers who are in a particular situation.
I can see it, there's definitely a type of Python dev that just uses jupyter and numpy/Pandas only.
