> Literally no user cares what language a project is implemented in

This is only true most of the time - some languages have properties which "leak" to user.

Like if it's Java process, then sooner or later user will have to mess with launchers and -Xmx option.

Or if it's a process which has lots of code and must not crash, language matters. C or C++ would segfault on any sneeze. Python or Ruby or even Java would stay alive (unless they run out of memory, or hang due to a logic bug)
