I don't think Tcl is in competition with Python or Perl. It is in competition with bash, PowerShell, etc. Its syntax is quicker to type which is good for interactive (REPL) use.

Sometimes I'm thinking about a simple build system which is very much like Make but uses Tcl to be cross-platform and scales better to advanced uses.

Tcl could also work well in Jupyter notebooks.

Once you think about functions, classes, and modules, you better use Python.
