It's not like Python devs build abstraction towers beyond what the language already has an encourages (unlike, say, Java which has a well deserved reputation for this kind of towering abstractions, or say, web development). If anything, a lot of Python effort is on Data Science and scientific python, where wrapped C/C++/fortran libs for maximum speed/minimum memory is the order of the day.
