I often wonder about that, especially having written lots and lots of lousy, unmaintainable code in my own life.
It usually starts with "oh it's just a one-off thing" and then it turns out to be useful and the rest is messy history.
But sure, within that genre I could see Python being a faster language to write in than many others.
