Yeah I wish variables were immutable by default and everything was an expression

Oh well continues day job as a Clojure programmer that is actively threatened by an obnoxious python take over

You are not a Clojure programmer. You use Clojure to solve problems in a professional context. I'm sorry that there's a political tribal war based on language going on at your workplace.

But especially now that coding agents are radically enabling gains in developer productivity, you don't need to feel excluded by the artificial tribal boundaries.
