The author only claims that better CPython C API support is needed for legacy applications.
Of course there are a vast number of applications that have C API themselves that one might want to accesses. You can interact with those through cffi in a way that's simple and performant already.
- bpicolo 11y agoThe bigger issue is the larger number of packages using the C Api, not the applications themselves
