Description
Users generally highlight how the limited functionality of Jayvee makes it easier to understand data pipelines compared to Python.
Especially for novice developers, more options mean that code is harder to understand which is one reason for why HU1.1 - Python is harder to understand without previous experience. On the other hand, users point out that experienced users will have more flexibility with more functionality.
In addition to the increased complexity of using a general-purpose programming language, Python also has an extensive ecosystem of libraries commonly used in data engineering such as Pandas. These add additional complexity that can make understanding a data pipeline challenging, see PL4.2 - External libraries have different approaches and change.
