Seriously, why couldn’t the Perl guys have been as sensible as the Python people and not tried to both completely redesign the language and create a new runtime at the same time?

I heard at one point they planned to get Perl 6 also run on the Perl 5 runtime, which I’m sure would have been much, much faster, but I haven’t heard anything about that since.
