    Otoh, TIOWTDI would mean that once you have found a solution, you have found the best possible solution (as there is only one solution).

by this logic, this is also the worse possible solution also!

But I agree with commenters who say that there's not such a real-world language with only one solution everywhere.
but languages having more TIMTOWTDI freedom give more freedom to programmer, but sometimes this freedom is not good, like in example by OP.
