  Uhm, could you elaborate? Org mode/Babel supports many languages and is feature rich. Why would you say, the statement "Babel is Jupyter notebook on steroids" is laughable?

    That probably just means he or she thinks Org Mode looks ugly. People are shallow and way too into looks. At least that's what I tell myself when I fail to get people interested in Org mode. :)

    Honestly, I meant that lightly. My apologies. I found it humorous because it followed the (gui-version)^2 format of emacs-like tool endorsements. If you want an actual reason, the two are not even close. Jupyter is a multi-langauge kernel _server_. Also most of its users are data scientists and the things they care about are pandasDfs, charts, tables which makes html rendering much more capable. You might say there are plugins and ways to do all the things I mentioned org mode/babel, but that misses the point. They're very different products.
