Until uv you would have said ".. in spite of its utterly awful dependency/environment scene, a car crash of differing opinions" but that's kind of sorted.

So many stringlike format options. Such afterthought to types...

You don’t have to understand lambda calculus LISP style programming, and you don’t have to understand manual memory C style programming. You just need to be able to abstract procedures through functions, closures through classes, and conditions through loops.

Basically you get to program computers without having to know how computation or computers work. The fact that Python is so popular is perhaps the best evidence that knowledge of computation and computers is in fact an impediment to writing programs, ironically.
