Right, which is my point about LLM code assistants. If you did have two cases in the past: native but slow to add features so the project eventually dies vs. scripted but performance is bad enough it eventually needs to be rewritten. (Of course, this is a false dichotomy but I'm playing into your scenario).

Now we may have a new case: native but fast to add features using a code assist LLM.

If that new case is a true reflection of the near future (only time will tell) then it makes the case against the scripted solution. If (and only if) you could use a code assist LLM to match the feature efficiency of a scripting language while using a native language, it would seem reasonable to choose that as the starting point.
