Both factually incorrect and besides the point.

It's funny because it's the same ads from the first wave of voice assistants. This AI stuff sure is revolutionary eh

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.

Good thing python only gets used for small stuff then /s

Oh cool snipers at protests. Totally normal respect for free speech and not at all fascist

People underestimate the cost of testing.

  1. It has to actually happen to be effective and is something that can be dropped under time pressure where something built into the language cannot.
  2. Test code is also code that is not guaranteed to be correct, and also incurs it's own maintenance tolls

Removing the need for entire classes of tests cases is a huge win

In my opinion, the biggest shortcoming of Python’s dynamic typing system is that you need to have very thorough test coverage to be sure that your code doesn’t have semantic errors

That is a large shortcoming.

It minimizes greenfield development time and increases it later for anything at scale. It's the mongodb of programming languages.

It has optional type annotations for use by linters*

Trusting it to have not fucked with your data while formatting it is pretty bold.
