Skills, as everything else, develop over time. Some get rusty though. I was once a very skilled c programmer, now I dread to manage memory myself. I suppose with time the tools change and the languages change with it. I don't think there is A Best Language for coding. They have different objectives, some are good in some context, some even fun, some are not fun but they do the thing they are suppose to best. It took me a long time to realise, that the language I choose is not strictly to communicate with the computer but with the next developer (including myself). The computer will interpret and run the code once it works, but the next developer is in charge of understanding the code, the Why and How, so she/he can maintain it, use it, or even learn from it.
