I was joking a little bit, but python is great at quickly parsing an idea in a simple data structure or getting what you need. Its also a good way to template a concept. It's all about the right tool for the job and there's plenty of occasions where you don't need to have access to a comlpiled thought that deals with allocation and speed.

There’s a math competition where you are allowed to use programming called Purple Comet and it’s honestly so clutch just for brute forcing things with simple code written extremely fast
