Having a familiarity is absolutely a great thing. The syntax isn't alien, so, debug and guiding juniors through figuring out why their project isn't working isn't too terrible. The typing is probably what drives me crazy the most. It's just bad and the standard library doesn't seem to be equipped to handle every type that it can "support" cleanly.
