But that's the problem with almost every language. It's the old saying, "If the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail."
Perl programmers extended Perl to be able to do stuff that it was not suited to doing.
The same thing is happening now with JavaScript and Python.
My personal problems with Perl are the hieroglyphics and the "default variable". There is an implied target variable that I don't ever actually see? Fuck that.
