Fair. Perhaps an implicit limiting factor in the Python community is that Python applications tend to be written and maintained by smaller numbers of people concurrently. But I think there is also a strong culture (at least nowadays) of individual developers not fucking with library internals and generally respecting API boundaries. Problems arise mostly with libraries that lack a clear public/private distinction like Pydantic and FastAPI, which is one of the big reasons why I personally think they are (currently) unsuitable for serious professional application development, despite being big winners of the "framework popularity contest" and being excellent tools for rapid prototyping and development of ad-hoc things.
