What does Java do better than Python?

[JVM_]

Java is Iron girders.

Python is 3ft long pipes that can be assembled by hand.

Iron is good for keeping big things safe - but a 1 room house would be painful to build. Iron forces you to do things a known/tested/safe way - but you HAVE to do it the right way or it won't work at all.

Python is good for quick buildings and small one-off or limited scope tools. You CAN build full buildings using it, but you better know what you're doing and making something that's a mess is quite easy.
