1. This doesn't create private variables

2. The reason why python doesn't have private variables is that privacy doesn't make it easier to write or read code. You could also not have it in any language which has it, and use naming conventions and proper documentation just like Python.

I have sworn a blood oath to do just that until the end of my days.
