Says who?

If you're judging the demand by studying job ads, you should be
aware that light-weight tools like Python and Perl are often hidden
under labels like "various scripting languages" or "rapid development
tools" or "script programming".

Most companies don't mention them at all, even if they use them
a lot.  Why would they?  Any programmer worth hiring can pick up
a light-weight language in a day or two.
