Self-flagilation is a little far for me.
Once your over the hump, it's a pleasure to use relative to word. Especially if your document gets large or has lots of maths in it.
And LaTeX works very well with git, this is really great when you are collaborating on a report.
How can you say that with a straight face when you like Matlab?
I mean, the MATLAB wojak has a dent in its skull, which feels pretty accurate. There is a ton of complex, niche, and (for those within the niche) incredibly useful software in the various Toolboxes, all developed with those fat stacks of MATLAB money. But it’s all piloted with the MATLAB language, which is just one of the worst things ever for oh so very many reasons.
And it’s wildly expensive.
