From a historical standpoint, there is also the bad blood of ActiveX, Flash, Silverlight and early Java applets that still leaves a bad taste in people's mouths. It has a slightly steeper uphill battle to fight.
Generally the most supported language on the tool/platform you want to target is the best one. Like SQL on databases, JS/ES in browsers, python in data science related stuff, etc. If multiple are heavily supported then just pick the one that's the most comfortable.
It won't fly. Not when a popular red meat election year topic is breaking google up and one such year is just around the corner.
It's worth doing it. There's a LOT of ground to cover beyond lambda, ec2 and s3 and they pretty much hand you a bunch of best-fit cookie cutter solutions as part of the training.

I had to learn to be my own PM and do the whole task grooming bit. Checking things off gamified the process.
18 months is the Holmes limit at Bank of America and Wells Fargo - they terminate you and let you know when you start that it's going to happen. It's normal in fintech. But don't change without a funded and secured offer.
