It's easier to compose functions in Kotlin. The python version you showed is more ad hoc, and is really one list comprehension.

I particularly like Kotlin's scope functions:

You can do partials in python too

I do prefer python over kotlin but IMHO semantically they're both beautiful and some of the least frictive languages I've ever used
