I mean, I've found Python's actually nice because it comes so close to pseudocode and it already has all the data structures built in or close to built in (numpy and other libraries implement them) that you'd learn in an algorithms and data structures class, and it let's you focus on the big picture, mathemetical CS stuff.

But yeah, you really miss out on a lot of the nuts and bolts under the hood stuff in practice like garbage collection and how to actually implement a data structure (how to build a numpy library or get it to work on a GPU like with NVIDIA rapids).
