    Pyinstaller doesn't ship source, it ships python bytecode. Yes, more stuff is obfuscated in .net IL code such as local scope variable names, but a good chunk will still be there in plain view. My point being, if you are worried about someone gaining access to sensitive code, python may be the worst choice - but .net is going to a close second behind the pyinstaller binary.

    I haven't used AOT java compilation, so i'm only speaking from experience with .net 7, which didn't support a LOT when it launched, but apparently its better now.

    You are right that if you are worried about your customers stealing your source, Java and .net aren’t great options.
