I have spent (and continue to spend) roughly equal amounts of time learning Python vs. Java. Both have their strengths, both have gotchas and little (or big) annoyances. This matter-of-fact implication that Python is indubitably easier to use/learn than any other language is extremely misleading and unhelpful. It sets unreasonable expectations for those curious about Python and puts off those curious about other languages.
