Bottle came first, flask was a play on the name.

Flask was a joke it really got out of hand
Flask is a high-level wrapper around werkzeug, with some stock components like jinja2 thrown in.

Basically the Ikea of web site tools.

If that seems a hassle, go Django.

TIL. Didn't realize this wasn't a new project (but also didn't read past "WSGI").
