For me it's pretty simple. I love Python. I like speed. I like embedded. This is an attempt to take advantage of Python's type hints to create fast and hopefully small binaries that can be executed on embedded devices limited amount of resources (both CPU and RAM).

There are probably other languages that would serve the same purpose, but oh well, I can't resist creating another. =)

Have you look at mypyc?

https://github.com/python/mypy

Its a compiler that support subset of python and mypy's team including Guido work on it. It would be great if this kind of efforts have been done on more realistic project.

It compiles statically typed Python modules to CPython C extension modules. I do not know the details, but it sounds like that's a major difference to Mys.
