There's a notable difference between a question that can be answered definitively with and element of opinion and hard-earned experience, and one that can only be discussed and explored through the debate itself.

See Good Subjective, Bad Subjective

The question you cited is one of the longest-running, most contentious debates in programming (which language should I learn first). Perhaps with a lot of back-and-forth, point/counter-point discussion, a reader could take in all the arguments and make a decision for themselves. It's not that the question is inherently unfit to be asked, but Stack Exchange's one-answer ranking system precludes that type of on-going, thoughtful discussion by design.

This is a better fit for a threading discussion forum that would actually allow these types of debates. It's not really a good fit for this site.
