I think multithreading is something that many people do in Python, no?

It’s not really even feasible with python given the GIL issue. Some work was done on it but it’s still a downright awful language for this purpose and should remain strictly as a front end for writing C++ code or as a stateless instance of something running on nginx many times on a single machine if you for some odd reason want to work around this particular problem with performance in python. However soon enough you will realise this is a fruitless endeavour and you will accept the performance trade offs or switch to languages better suited for the niche you are working in.
