> functionally all languages are the same and the one that's most appropriate for the task is "whichever one you prefer"

given how difficult some tasks are in langs not suited for a purpose or langs that lack some library you might need, I kinda doubt it.

even everyday tasks like “i wish to pipe the output of this process into another one” or “let me calculate some result to arbitrary precision” are easy in some langs and hard in most.
