I’m not a fan of Python, but this article is insufferable in tone. If Python doesn’t meet your needs, don’t use it. There’s plenty of oddities to gripe about in Python, but this article doesn’t attempt to learn something or make a larger point beyond “my favored approach is the only valid approach”. Sorry, but that’s not an opinion worth considering.

As much as I personally dislike python, I completely agree with this, but want to flip it. If pythong meets your needs, absolutely use it. Don't complain about how Visual BASIC doesn't work for you on your way to downloading whatever version of python is current this month.
