I'd say that there's less knowledge shared between Python frontend and Python backend than between Python and JavaScript frontends. Outside of syntax and ecosystem, I wouldn't think there's much shared between Python backend and frontend.
If you are already using Python on the backend, not having to hire/train a completely different skill set/stack is appealing. Sure, the browser and CSS/HTML specialism is going to remain, but not having to split your team by JS vs <backend-language> would make it much easier for a team to collaborate and share work.
I think Python in the browser only has to be “almost as good” in a direct comparison for it to actually win out as the best choice organizationally for many teams.
