I understand the hatred of VB generally but as a non-programmer (just technically literate and knows enough to be dangerous with a computer) writing VB (in the form of VBA) was extremely accessible and surprisingly intuitive - far more than I ever experienced when dabbling in python, JavaScript and Rust.

My joke comment was based on love! I actually started my professional career with VB (3 no less) and it was an excellent language for what it was good for, mainly building good UIs. Sure, it could be – and was – used to create unearthly horrors, but that’s true of every language and platform.
