Language or any other technology you choose has the same problem.

Getting lost in the "tech $X is better for this than $Y" can easily become a distraction. Engineering is a form of applied science for money.

Since it's economically driven, the two most important things you as an engineer need to know are:

- who is paying for this?

- why?

Those two questions should underpin every single decision you make. If you lose sight of that, theres a huge chance you won't succeed.
