I agree with this sentiment but it is a bit of a double edged sword for Python professionally. There is some really good Python code out there but there is also a lot of bad stuff too. I know this can be said for every language but I think I have seen it most in languages like JS and Python because of the ease of access.

A better measure would be the amount of bad code produced conditioned on the skill/experience of the author. I'd be more worried about a beginner C programmer than a beginner Python programmer.
