AFAICT Mojo has (or plans to have) Python-like syntax and easy interop with Python.

I’m not sure it’s any more Python-like than that - the similarity to Python seems to be heavily overstated for marketing reasons.

I‘m pretty sure in their early communications the stated very clearly that Mojo is going to be a clear superset of Python. Seems like they paddled back a bit in that regard.

Yeah this is slightly confusing for me as well. Even in this very podcast, being a superset of Python was mentioned as a goal (albeit a long term one).
