No, because python's simple HTTP server isn't production ready (doesn't support Range requests last I checked, and quite a few other limitations). And nginx is not "quick and easy" by any means, doesn't grant me the security of memory safety (it was vulnerable to Heartbleed, for example -- I wrote Caddy shortly after Heartbleed), and doesn't give me automatic HTTPS.

And Caddy is very well battle-tested too, btw. ;)
