Perl is a write-only language because its main advantage "There is more than
one way to do it".
It is the most flexible language, so there can be very many styles of
programming in perl, and because of this it is much harder to create a big
team of programmers in perl than in other languages.
The members of a big team of perl programmers should be very good
programmers because they need to understand many styles of writing the code,
and this is harder, especially that there are much fewer perl programmers
than the number of programmers in other languages like Java, C#, or PHP.

Subject: wrote-only language?
Someone said Perl is a "wrote-only language", what does this mean?
