Python, like COBOL and Excel is a good language for people who program as part of their work but are not professional programmers: data analysts, scientists, some finance types, etc.
Compare that to C where buffer overflows are common, Rust where the type system is a high art, Java where thread-based concurrency "just works" so you can get in trouble using it, etc.
