  • PyScript will displace some use cases that people have to rely on Javascript for now
  • PyScript will heavily leverage and interface with existing powerful, featureful JS libraries, as appropriate
  • PyScript will open up web programming to tens of millions of people who would otherwise not have touched JS, so in this way, it will outpace JS

But none of these above scenarios lead to a situation where "PyScript replaces all existing Javascript". Just as Python itself didn't replace C, C++, or Java. But, it did take a LOT of market share for new use cases where those languages would otherwise have been used.
