It feels to me like JS is more for people who want to write "clever" code and Python is for people who want to write boring, more maintainable code. It doesn't help that JS has a gentler learning curve and attracts more people who just want to get things done without thinking whether those things should be done that way.
IMO JavaScript is for people who want to get things done quickly and efficiently and have their program work everywhere. Python is for people who like to think they are doing things “the right way” as if there were such a thing.
Indeed I can't. I can say no to "JS is more enjoyable than Python", which is what you said in your upstream comment.

If by "everywhere" you mean "in a browser", sure. I don't see how that's related to the common definition of "everywhere", though.

I don't know what you mean by that.
I'd hate to see Python become as popular as JavaScript and to have it be used as the defacto standard in browsers because honestly, it's nowhere near as enjoyable to use as JS.
