I've looked at Polars. My sense is that Pandas is an interactive data analysis library poorly suited to production uses, and Polars is the other way around. Seemed quite verbose for example. Sometimes doing `series["2026"]` is exactly the right thing to type.
With some of the newest 3.x changes like copy-on-write, I find pandas getting quite verbose now as well.
In a world where AI is writing the code, I guess I shouldn't complain, but when I am discovering something the ai of choice yet again missed, both pandas and polars still feel verbose and lacking sugar.
You can do that in Polars, too
