To people that really spend time in code, this banter is meaningless.

Well sure, it depends on the context. If it's a shitpost on /c/programmer_humor, whatever, meaningless banter.

If it's a serious question, (maybe for a beginner) asking how to do something in their language, and the response is "It would be a lot easier in y language" - I don't think it's particularly helpful
