By that metric, there are no good programmers who write Perl. I have
yet to see two Perl coders agree on what Perl is well-written and
what Perl is badly written. Every time you hire a consultant to
maintain a Perl script they end up rewriting the whole damn thing
because "the last guy didn't know what he was doing." This is the
case even when "the last guy" was the very same guy six months ago.

Just because you had a lousy programmer (& then hired him/her again) don't blame the language. The same problem could exist with AppleScript or any other number
of languages.
