Repeat after me:

The best software engineers pick up a new language in a few weeks. They can become pretty good in a month or two.

The best devs also don’t get bogged down with one language.

ESPECIALLY not today when AI makes onboarding to new languages so much easier

It goes down to PR not understanding software engineering btw - these are usually business suits, with zero engineering interest or background

They think they are helping the company by "protecting" secrets like what language they use (it's on the job ads btw).

But they do the opposite
