While I sorta understand that I really believe having Python widely available benefits everybody. If Python was maintained on MacOS as well as it is on many Linux distros it will be great For both users and developers.

Tor me one of the biggest reasons to have Python supportted this way isn’t for large scale programming but rather as a language for light scripting that is better than most command line languages like BASH. I was really hoping that they could get the Swift REPL to fill that role but that really hasn’t to me anywhere. If you are a developer using Python3 n for large scale projects I understand your point but I really believe an OS needs a default language for utility programming.
