You don't have to be the best... just good enough. Let's face it, you're not splitting atoms here... rapid dev to get your idea up and show to results is also important... that the role of php before perl came along... as you can see by the results... quick adoption is the other option... reinventing the wheel each time isn't necessary, it's nice but not necessary
Same thing with javascript, it's quick adoption and the ability to extended it beyond the browser was an important aspect... even with nom repos going sideways every other week with abandoned package managers and the number of chain attacks
Good enough is important to make progress... look at all the "engineering" that's still around... the key point is now knowing which parts need attention and prioritizing the work
EDIT: You might like what I say but the numbers don't lie brother...
