Without experience, tools don't matter. A skilled developer will most likely write better code regardless of language/framework.

It's a repeating pattern in this society, fools with advanced gear doing what fools do best.

I'd argue that no matter how "good" you are, you are capped at what tools you're using.

Consider using a hammer against a pneumatic tool. A newbie will hose you with better tools, they're wielding that condensed knowledge at their hands, their sum overshadow yours with only a hammer.

To a degree. Python has plenty of advanced features that I have rarely used. 20% of the language gets used 80% of the time.
