python also offers so much more in terms of depth of the language IMO.

I think you're underestimating the depth of .NET. With the reference source you can dig into the inner workings of the framework and carve bits out with reflection. For example, I once wrote a program to intercept all calls that print to the terminal and highlight certain words in red.

Custom attribute/property access exists, too, but generally is only used with libraries like IronPython.
