Python is the second best language for everything. Having one language that does it all is better than learning several that might do it a little bit better.

Speed is a serious problem in Python though. Python has its use cases, and so do other languages. Things would not end well if we started using Python for everything.

This might be an unpopular opinion but python's speed wouldn't even be an issue if it was 5x slower than it is now.

Python is a language designed for write-time performance, not runtime performance.
