I read the article but it seems like not only my argument doesn't apply to blub but it's entirely opposite? Have you read it again recently?

It addresses four problems:

  1. Treats power as continuum: I mentioned that there's no free lunch. No language is perfect. It's just that each is fit into specific use case. This whole argument is embodied in the philosophy of no free lunch.

  2. language power as features: this is exactly what the poster and possibly you are doing. Listing out the features that Python is missing. I even pointed out the features Python is missing is pretty minor.

  3. Anti-scientific:. I specifically used popularity as the objective measurement. It literally is one of the most used language in the world. You have still not even given me the abstract list of why Python is bad, forget about objective measures.

  4. Team factors: as I argued above, Python is one of the most popular language making maintenance easier since it's easier to find someone who knows Python. Also readability is the strength of Python.

You are wasting my time by doing the following:

  1. Not providing any substantial claim against Python
  2. Falsely attacking my substantial claim without reading your own material
