Agreeing, I'd point out that C++ templates are Turing complete (and now they've added constinit and friends). That can certainly result in bad code, but it also enables very good code as well (ex the Eigen library). Python objects can be monkey patched at runtime - a powerful ability, but trivial to misuse.

Certainly the design of a language should facilitate and even actively encourage writing good code. Attempting to solve systemic organizational or educational issues with it is probably counterproductive though.

Since you mentioned the Eigen library: I'm sure it's an extremely elegantly designed library, and I know it's super powerful and efficient. But for someone like me, with fairly limited C++ experience, it was absolutely painful to learn and understand how to use it. Even though it's fairly well documented, I had to really dig through the sources whenever bugs arised. Understanding all these templating abstractions was a huge pain.
