For me personally, the killer was that python is typically pre-installed on linuxen while Ruby isn't, and if those environments are controlled or locked down in any way it can be a ballache to get ruby on there. Hence python is the path of least resistance.

This is absolutely a reason to choose Python. I’ve experienced this and made the same choice in the past.
In terms of pre installed options, especially on older systems, Python is the best choice for integrating and extending systems.
