I think the high-level point that Python has not been tied to a company is true, but it's not been true that Python is "Guido's language" for decades. Python has a very effective community process. Guido has certainly served as a tie-breaker and of course as BDFL (no longer!), but I see the language being largely steered by the community and community leadership.
