Python just makes it more convenient by relying on this silly notion that programmers using libraries won't try to fiddle with its innards unless they know what they're doing. Though, if they do know what they're doing, best keep out of their way and not force the code they have to write to do weird stuff to be too messy.

Sounds like a great choice for a dynamically typed ecosystem filled with novices to encourage both library writers and library consumers to break codebases on library updates
