In a place like India, where they have computer labs and are 15 yeras behind in that respect, and the fraction of time spent programming is small (which it must be), it is even better, since kids can have their cake and eat it too. Show off potential is huge.

Technically speaking this is not true. You could write a Lua plugin with the text editor and run it through the interpreter, however this is very tedious and writing it on a PC (with a physical keyboard) is much preferred.
