All points are at least semi-valid concerns. However, what is the cost of addressing them? Slower development (core lang and ecosystem). Less use in niche fields. Less flexibility to adapt to new challenges. Python is a rusty toolbox that's been put together over 27 years. You know why it's still around? Because people can use it to do the things they want to do. Fixing all the warts would give us the language we need now... in about 15 years. Which would by then be useless.
