It mostly reflects my own story. From a beginner enthusiast of multiple "cool" languages (Scala was all the rage back then), through considering myself more "mature" and thinking about business priorities, ending at understanding that using a good programing language is a business priority.

If the team works with a language they enjoy, they will be happier (and more productive). Doesn't even matter if the code is written by humans or machines.
