If they never migrate on the premises of python 3 being a better language what does it say about python 3?
Very little. People stick with languages for all sorts of reasons, including:
- It's what I know - I don't like change - That's what the client insists on - That's what my boss insists on - That's what the vendor provides - That's what my web host provides - I really love language X, but I need this *one* library that's only available on language Y, so I'm stuck
- It takes time to migrate a codebase. Regards Antoine.
