If you buy any webspace it will have PHP installed 99% of the time. There is a huge number of garden-variety webdesigners that server small businesses. These people are used to a combination of PHP + Apache + MySQL + phpMyAdmin. They can install Wordpress on that and know enough JavaScript to modify a gallery script to do what they want.
A Python webspace is much harder to find. Even if they would find one, they could not use it, because online resources for Python are targeted at people that either want to learn to program or already know how to program, not at people that want to use tools as building blocks.

It wasn't me who downvoted you, but if I had to guess why, it would be because administrating a full instance of Linux just to run a CMS is a long way off the ease of dropping a PHP file on shared hosting.
I remember that here in Europe, you can get an own virtual machine for roughly $5 to $8 per month, and Python webhosting must be less expensive than that to compete.
