String Subtraction: Where Languages Draw The Line

Python's having an existential crisis while JavaScript is just vibing with string math. The expression '3'-'1' in Python throws a tantrum because strings can't be subtracted (how dare you try to violate type rules!). Meanwhile, JavaScript's like "2, duh" because it'll happily convert your strings to numbers and do the math anyway. Classic JavaScript - solving problems you didn't know you had by creating problems you never wanted. That traceback is the sound of Python's dignity remaining intact while refusing to do your questionable arithmetic.
