I share this feeling. Going to python for the first time as someone that has developed software for 16+ years was incredibly more difficult and time consuming than I would have hoped. I still don't understand how it has become the default go to language for teaching new coders when it has quite unintuitive syntax / packages and setup steps.

> unintuitive syntax

I don't see this often. Could you point out some syntax or concepts that aren't clear, in Python?
