Only if you don't know any other languages or the domain is well-known. Python is significantly more productive in the short term.

I can program in Assembler, C, Java, C#, JavaScript, Typescript, Ruby, Haskell etc. And there is zero empirical evidence that Python is “significantly” more productive in the short term. My guess is that it is only true if you don’t have much experience in any other languages.
