There are a lot of people who think that if a language or framework doesn't completely disallow bad practices (and of course the authors have to agree with their very specific subjective ideas of what bad practices are) then it sucks. I've always found that weird. Like why are you mad at a tool for being "too flexible"? Why not be okay with learning what not to do?

On the flip side, there is VBA which practically enforces bad practices.
