That’s disingenuous. There are languages like php or JavaScript that are much much faster than Python and that don’t require you to give up the keys to your house.

Is it any more of an exaggeration than your post?

Also pypy is fast, and the speed of php also heavily depends on version. Not that backend speed even makes a difference that much of the time. 3ms vs 8ms won't matter.
