I'll bite: you are OK with PHP and JS, but would complain if you had to use Python? JS is known for its speed of change (not in a good way) and PHP is legendary for inconsistency in system library. Python is not without its warts, but still... What did it do to rank lower than those two in your eyes?
I think it's mostly personal preference. I don't like significant whitespace, the type system, overall language ergonomics. It just doesn't fit my mental model. My point was more, if you have to use a language you don't like, you will end up with complaints as given by the OP, eg: "JS sucks".
