Python decision-making is rather conservative, preferring deep exploration of implications, because its a big, established language with a lot of existing use to support, and because of the 2->3 experience.

I don’t think lack of facilitation skill is an issue; its a deliberate policy choice.

Is there any production ready language that isn't conservative with its decision making?

There's variations of degree, but probably not. Part of being production-ready is stability.
