I guess I don't understand what your point is, I even less understand how you measure it, as you don't even offer up a particular language feature or PEP in which Python's purported ignorant groupthink has influenced, or even an outlandish personal anecdote ("This one guy tried to convert all our codebases into Python..."). I guess I can't personally relate since I came from Python after C/JS/Ruby/PHP and have done so not out of delusion or hype. Maybe your perception is based on having met a lot of non-erudite Python developers. Which wouldn't directly contradict the basis of the submitted article, which is that Python is an incredibly popular language, i.e. one that attracts the masses.
