> The question is "will teaching python actually benefit students more"?

Is there an argument against it? I ask in genuine curiosity. I am aware that it is not statically-typed and abstract away some of the important concepts in computer science.

What language do you think is more suited? Do keep in mind some of the intro CS classes are also used to warm up non-CS majors to what CS looks like.

The biggest advantage I think it offers is the lowering of barrier to entry. It ignites excitement and removes obstacles to start understanding cs logic so as to say.
