What the Heck Is Pyproject.toml?

When the overwhelming majority of computer users will probably struggle with something a bit more complex than a Hello World type project, nice scripting and introduction to programming is light-years ahead of every body else.

This is no small feat.

Also the ecosystem of libraries is the same.

You can't see that from your ivory tower but those things matter a lot to people on the ground.

Don't let you prejudice get in the way, it never helps :)

Basic did it first, including the structured programming variants like QBasic and Turbo Basic.

I see that from my historical experience.

Also we are moving goal posts here, I was quite explicit that Python is a good language for teaching programming.

What I am against is portraying as the one Language above anything else.
