JavaScript is more enjoyable than Python to me. You can’t really say no to that.

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.
