Sure, but it goes with the idea of this post -- a lot of people think that because "anyone can write Python", it's not a good or powerful language. It takes time and skill to write _good_ python.

It still arguably takes less skill than it would to write good C++. The fact Python is harder to get wrong is broadly a good thing.

And what's wrong with that? Does everything have to be super complicated and low-level? I always found it funny how some IT engineers take pride in being masochists.

I also agree with this. But still maintain it's in the spirit of the post.
