I would distinguish different levels of programming skill. If one is
going to be making decisions such as choosing the language for a
project, it is important to understand the capabilities and supported
programming styles for a wide variety of languages.

Similarly, anyone working in programming language design and
standardization should understand the possibilities that have been
demonstrated by other languages.

For someone who is just programming in one language, it is enough to
know that language well.
