What do you mean by scripting language?

I think that any advantage of being able to run python is moot considering that it has only 256KB of RAM.

It's based on MicroPython, which is designed to run in highly constrained embedded environments. You can do quite a lot with 256KB of RAM, MicroPython is surprisingly efficient.
I don't think you understand just how much memory that is for a basic python script.
