Hi Solomon, In a nutshell, PyMEL results in less lines of code at the expense of being more heavy to compute. So its a trade-off between readability and performance. Depending on your needs, one is typically more suited than the other for certain tasks. As an example, you might not write a deformer using PyMEL, but you might write a scene saver.
