I like reading a bit of prose about when a tool doesn't fit someone's use case. Nim has a pretty interesting approach to data sharing in concurrency, and it's more interesting to read a story of someone who got bit by it than to read a table of language features and wonder when it might prove to be a problem.

But that's not how it was phrased at all. It was more like "I liked this thing, then I didn't like it because it didn't scale in a certain aspect as I wanted to so peace". I think studies of use cases are valuable but this was not one.
