> Idiomatic Python is just much clearer and more straight forward for most. They explicitly spent time to minimize how many language concepts and constructs you need to get basic things done. [...] The syntax/grammar are often more regular, use keywords and fewer symbols, and optional bits.
This is similar to a native-English speaker boldly asserting that Dutch is a 'clearer and more straight forward' and 'more regular' language than Japanese.
It might be absolutely true for your own experience and upbringing, but it's still completely subjective.
