>Python is more like an overgrown masters level project, not a Nobel prize level by far.

Please find me another "Masters Project" that has 8 Million+ Users and drives the backend for thousands of tech companies worldwide. Good Luck.

Funny guy.

If you think a single function is equivalent to an entire Language you should get your head checked.

The number of users is not a metric that makes something Nobel prize-worthy. The exaggeration of the comparison with left-pad is to make this point more clear to you ~~ if you cannot see it yourself, it's sad. Also, going with "funny guy" and "check your head" is not a good argument btw, if you did not know that ~~
