Python is dynamic AF and Rust's whole shtick is compile-time safety. Python was built from the ground up to be dynamic and "easy", Rust was meticulously designed to be strict and use types to enforce constraints.

It's hard to convey how difficult it would be to retrofit python to be able to truly "enclose multithreading in a safe abstraction".
