MATLAB being jacked but still a little off feels right to me lol.

I want to love Julia so much, but it's always something. The funky handling of scope in the REPL was the latest off-putting thing for me, but maybe I should give it a try again...

Yep, that hole on the head is perfectly representative.

If you don't like MATLAB your probably not the correct audience. It's for people needing to do data analysis, simulation or control and have a lot of money to pay for the libraries. The things software developers hate about it tend to be what makes it better for statistics and modelling. Math works even suggest it isn't appropriate for making software as the sell simulink coder that turns simulink models into c++ code.

I am 100% the target audience, have worked on multiple teams that did their 6DOF models in Matlab for GNC and orbital dynamics stuff.

I still think simulink is absolutely terrible. It makes certain things a lot easier to implement but the Git implementation is very nearly useless.
