Well I use both extensively, and I'm very confident that I can write a script of 1000 lines with much less bug and much better error handling that in bash, in half the time it would take me.

In fact, as soon as you need to use arrays, it's game over.

1000 lines in python is a bash oneliner and planning for failure is bad design.

Why?

PS. comfortable with both. I don't draw lines based on LOC or arrays.
