Just spent ~1 hour trying to set up a working python environment .... so yes. It's in the classic phase where it has an ecosystem with a bunch of problems that are small enough that they aren't being tackled comprehensively by the core language, but large enough that n different solutions are being created in parallel by different groups. The result is an explosion in complexity for anybody just trying to get their job done and ... it's actually very unpythonic!

I've spent the whole weekend on dealing with Python, and now this evening and probably a few evenings to come.
