All of this exists in, basically, any mainstream language in some capacity. A lot of them offer superior alternatives.
There's nothing about Python's quality that's worth keeping. The reason for Python's popularity is its popularity. The reason why it won't die is inertia.
But, say, someone creates a "killer app", that runs on hardware different enough from anything we have today, and that someone hates Python (smartphones are the most recent example of such a change), then there'd be a chance to dislodge it. But I struggle to see how Python would "organically" die.
