> the term "a real python programmer" clearly meanys a developer who actually has used Python in the past in a remotely significant way

As a "real python programmer" that is trying to manage a conversion from Python 2 to 3, I can confirm that there is no superiority complex. We feel whipped and beaten, forced to convert a code-base that has been deemed "legacy" in exchange for a few nice string manipulation features that we don't really need.

A "real python programmer" in 2020 is an abandoned class.
