The perfect /prog/lang

I'm trying to determine the common traits of /prog/-approved languages:
lets start
1.GC is shit.
Does everyone agree? Are incremental GC's or automatic refcounting also shit?

The key problem: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WhyWorryAboutArchitecture
resulting in http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?FocusOnCode
which leads to eventual http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?LanguageInhibitsRefactoring
from http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?DoTheSimplestThingThatCouldPossiblyWork
and spawning many anti-patterns such as:
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?CreepingFeaturitis
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?MultiplyAndSurrender
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?GodClass
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?RubeGoldbergMachine
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?JunkyardCoding
coalescing into a http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?BigBallOfMud
gradually getting a http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?CodeSmell
becoming http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?SomebodyElsesFramework
as you http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?BecomeCompetent
viewing it as http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?OtherPeoplesCode
then you realize http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ReuseHasFailed
and begin http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?BigRefactorings
culminating in http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?RewriteCodeFromScratch
