I have no dog in this fight - flame away - but I’m offended by the sparkle-junkies calling [arbitrary non-rust language] old on a daily basis and somehow deciding some arbitrary measure of popular+shiny is a replacement for ‘good’ in some bizarre idiocratic glorification of naïveté .
the comment you’re replying to is saying python, the old less shiny language, is more well known and more widely used by a larger number of developers than rust, the original stinger of the meme. that’s not the goalposts moving. that’s the goalposts being planted firmly at the 100 yard line like how they are in Canadian football
