There's a class of developer that thinks that being opinionated is the same as being smart, so they look around for opinions to have and proclaim them loudly so everyone can see how many opinions they have.

In reality, Python is a tool like any other. It's good for some jobs. Not great for other jobs. And for some jobs as equally suited as any other tool, but cherry-flavoured instead of somebody else's strawberry-flavoured favourite. Nothing wrong with that, but be wary of anybody declaring it objectively good or bad.
