I'm a C++ dev and was taught Python as a tool for prototyping and validation of ideas, not as a language for final implementations. Later with years I've read endless histories about the "traps" you mention, so I understood the notion I was taught wasn't without its merits. So I still look suspiciously to all mid to large projects what are written in Python. It takes some serious effort and good engineering to maintain good quality, and still the tooling is not there for error detection, like in other better typed languages would be. I wouldn't feel confident relying on such project for a critical infrastructure piece. The idea should have been validated quickly with Python, then implemented in a more appropriate language. EDIT: Obviously that's just my possibly wrong opinion. There are huge projects out there proving otherwise, but the issues discussed here are _very_ real.
