That doesn't sound like much of a "gotcha". The requirements for small stuff and big stuff are drastically different.
Good thing python only gets used for small stuff then /s
...and people use MS Excel as a database, it's not the fault of the tech that people force things to do things they're not designed for.
You seem to think I'm saying python shouldn't be used at when all I said was it increases development time for projects at scale.
Fair enough, it read to me as a "gotcha" (as in "if python is do great then why can't it..."). I've spent too much time on places like Reddit where every interaction is three seconds from becoming a knife fight!
