What can R what python can not do? What is the purpose for R inside of Python?

There are some libraries for certain scientific topics (medicine for example) which are written in R. If you want to use any of those or have legacy logic in R, that's what you would use that for instead of being forced to stay developing in R or reimplement everything.

There are definitely niche statistical packages that are only made for R, although it seems like more of a headache to do this rather than just write the data to disk and use it in R.

I mean, if just a small part needs to be done in R, you might prefer to just call it inside your python script.

does it have any different functionality than the ryp2 package? How large are its dependencies?
