Why does one have to "prefer" a language to the exclusion of all 
others (unless one is the author of a language ;-)

I like Python for lots of things, but it is crap for some, hence 
Java/Groovy/Scala/Kotlin/Ceylon/Clojure for JVM-based work and 
C++/D/Rust/Go/Chapel for native-based work.

PyD needs more support from the D community!
