I will agree with that.
The power in Python is the libraries.
I have used Python, particularly in one project, simply because there was a Python library available that did what I needed.
Had the same library been available in Perl or GoLang, I would have used one of those.
As a language, I do not like Python.
I particularly dislike whitespace as syntax, which is a less than optimal
design decision, at least in my opinion.
