No. (IMO.)
1. The system for computers is abstract enought that different programming
languages have NO impact on how it works. Unless you rewrite the whole
decking system, you can't really shoehorn this in.
2. Most deckers have little enough to do in the average game that
penalizing them further is unfair, IMO. Obviously, YMMV if you have a
decker-heavy game.
