Of course we never trash talk other open source languages either, do we?
 Where would we be without all the good arguments for Python vs the
'others'... ;-)  Sorry, couldn't resist.

Just to say, we have done pretty good on this list avoiding platform or

   Just to be better educated, not to flame anyone.
