The problem is how the author frames it in the README: "an experiment to disprove some of the falsehoods about performance and optimisation regarding software and interpreted languages in particular", "unfortunately many programmers [...] spend countless hours by making life harder for themselves in the name of marginal performance gains, often trading many other conveniences (such as type safety)". Between the heavy use of C libraries and correctness issues (https://github.com/boramalper/pydis/issues/12 https://github.com/boramalper/pydis/issues/12), I don't see how this project proves that Python is faster or safer than other languages. That being said, the speed with which it was developed can certainly be seen as Python's strong point.
