Python's standard library is definitely much more batteries-included than JavaScript's.

depends, JavaScript in the Browser has many useful things available, which I miss with python, e.g., fetch, which in Python you need a separate package like requests to avoid a clunky API. Java had this issue for long time as well, since Java 11 there is the HttpClient with a convenient API.
