r should just transition to being a statistics package for the python ecosystem.

R has been part of my stack professionally for around 16 years and in that time I'd estimate maybe 15% of my code had anything to do with statistics. I've used it for numerical modelling, data viz, ETL pipelines, deploying APIs, building dashboards, amongst many other topics. To reduce R to statistics is doing it a disservice.
