What Arduino did right was to understand that you have to make sure the tools run regardless of what is installed on the target machine. You make a software package that has everything it needs to do the job without external dependencies. Now look at the discussion here. A surprising number of people actually expect users to have to understand the runtime requirements and environment of the tooling and seem to think it is the user's job to learn Python and manage this. Not a lot of people here "get it". And oh boy do people get offended if you suggest that one may have something to learn from the kind of thinking that went into Arduino.
