I am here only to poke on you ;-)
But I can't replace Emacs Lisp with something else. I have got
interface and it is sufficient, I need not think of plethora of
elements. We manage employees, documents, accounting, reports of all
kinds, I mean it is huge. I have switched from Perl to Emacs.
** Statistics
╔════════════════════════╦════════╦══════════════════════════════╦═══════╗
║ Total number of people ║ 242546 ║ Total Hyperdocuments ║ 62993 ║

╚════════════════════════╩════════╩══════════════════════════════╩═══════╝
All that above is managed through Emacs interface.
So if Python is better, it is for me personal issue, not technical
issue. I have got no oversight and capacity to measure what is better.
