So, if I understand it correctly, TL;DR of the article is “Normal users hate #Lua, because they miss standard library; the feeling is mutual, we hate them as well. Lua should be used only by large (semi-)professional projects, which build they own standard library.” Did I get it right?
(Meanwhile, I have to fight about https://git.sr.ht/~mcepl/vis/commit/d19f12337e440 being included into #vis).
