Aside from shooting yourself in the foot, I don't see anything you've shared that can't be done in python.

The "no safety net" means that Forth is a low level language. You can touch anything in the machine. Many times it is used without an O/S. So if you push a random number onto the hardware stack you will get burned.
Of course not. I was merely expressing that Forth makes interactively very easy. And like all languages, it is impossible to evaluate them if you don't use them for some significant amount of time.
Python also makes "interactively" very easy!
