I'm not so sure. A couple times I've shown WTFpython [0] to a co-worker, who after spending a bit of time skimming through it mentions that they finally understand a bug they had when they were learning python. And which entry it is is usually different between them.

Yeah there are some weird quirks relating to scope and mutable default arguments, but overall I think there are still way less WAT issues than with javascript.
