Is perl really

It is installed by default everywhere

No hate i’m just surprised

It's a dependency of a lot of things, including git, lxc, GNU autotools. Check the Required By on the Archlinux repo.

Based solely off the implications of this post, it seems Perl is installed default on most Linux distros and MacOS, but not Windows. https://www.perl.com/article/downloading-and-installing-perl-in-2021/
