Control. Its a replacement for C that is a lot nicer to work with.

So basically if you either need your Python code to interact with a native library or need more control in a specific place, you can use Zig there.

Zig makes it trivial to control which part of the code e.g allocate memory, so you can guarantee that your rendering or audio loop has no stuttering.

I would still keep Python as the main driver for where dev speed is the most important part.
