> Hey Python users: you know that in the end everything ends up as machine code, don't you?

I don't understand where you're trying to go with this call-out, especially if you're also describing yourself as a Python user.

But, like, no, not really; ordinarily, Python is bytecode-compiled and then the bytecodes are interpreted. There's machine code doing the interpretation, but that interpretation is not transformation.
