I don't have an opinion either way on your position here, other than a fact check.

Guido van Rossum (creator of Python) is a Distinguished Engineer at Microsoft. Before that, he worked at Dropbox.

Before that, he was at Google. Failing to retain an employee doesn't invalidate that Google would rather they didn't leave.

I get the quarterly check-ins from the "alumni recruiting" team, and can assume Guido does too.
