Cython is a better equilavent as it does compile to C while enabling Python syntax. No one is arguing C or C++ is the best language. I'd even argue a perfect language does not exist. Simple syntax could be argued on a line to line basis, but forced indents is uncomfortable for some, and Julia could be argued to be better in that area. I'm one to hope Julia can take off.

Yeah Julia seems to be just python but better (no GIL if I have understood things correctly).

And lack of forced indentations. Forced indentations gets on my nerves even if I already gotten used to it. These day, all I use Python is small code snip test, and it's perfect for that as it strips out braces and other things which allows me to focus on a small code. I did used Python for slightly bigger things than that, but only to assist me with other coding languages, and I mainly used it for aiding into G'MIC scripting (Domain-Specific Language that is absolutely wonderful for raster graphics image processing).
