I like how the article breaks up the headings into "Where Does Python Work Well?" and "Where Does Python Fall Short?" Asking whether Python is better than language X is like asking whether a screwdriver is better than a wrench; it's entirely determined by what you're trying to do.
One thing I've noticed in four years of using Python professionally is it changing rapidly. Even just the difference in the role of types in Python has changed to answer to where Python works well and where it falls short. Anyone reviewing articles like this should keep a keen eye on the publication date for this reason (which unfortunately this articles does not have).
