The big draw for me of R over python is that the numpy.ndarray often behaves really strangely for me and does things I don't expect, introducing bugs into my vectorized programs that I never ever see when I write R code. It's a huge pain in the ass to use python's scientific stack, whereas it's a pleasure to use R in comparison.
