I'm sure Guido did things for the scientific community. My claim was that he probably didn't move the needle for them after coming to Google in 2005.
The other person claimed that Google magic somehow led to Python becoming dominant in the sci/numeric/data computing community, and that just strikes me as wildly implausible. Google has done negligible foundational work on scientific Python. No one in that community has ever cared what Google thinks.
Anyways, I'm curious why you think D has potential as a Data Science language? Why not a more popular language like Julia or Rust?
