Though one would probably never be able to work with an assumed install of Python anyway because one would not be able to assume a specific version. I am guessing this is a lesser problem for Perl, since it’s been frozen at some version of 5 for the past 25-30 years correct?

Incorrect. Perl (5.x) has seen 10 stable releases in as many years, IOW since 2014.
