My uncle told me to start with Python, not Java, and he was totally right (even though I argued with him about it for weeks).

My cousin started with Java and got a job at Google right out of school. Why is Python the only right answer?

Remember my buddy who swore by C++ and landed a killer role at a trading firm. The whole "right" language thing misses the point. It's more about learning how to solve problems with code, and that skill transfers. Your cousin's story just proves there are many paths into the industry. Getting hung up on one language as the only door in is a trap.

Honestly, this whole debate feels a bit overblown. People get hired using all sorts of tools, not just one. The job gets done either way.
