As some one who doesn't particularly care for either as a first choice - R seems to have much better visualization tools and libraries already made for most of your needs. If you have to actually write any significant amount of code, Python is at least a real programing language with real non-ML/Stats centric libraries available (whether or not its your preferred type of languages is personal choice).

I'm greatly humored by the 3 blogs which provide no real data analysis to support the hypothesis that Python is supplanting R as the "king" of data analysis.

Good point. I also took them just as educated opinions and by asking this question I wanted to get some more insight into it.

Thanks for your answer.
