Huh? Not that I oppose picking it up and trying it. But (a) try asking for help on the internet when you haven't rtfm yet and see how it goes (b) personally I love reading about programming languages I'll probably never use... I've never written a line of scheme in my life but SCIP still taught me a lot; and it's always interesting to see the different ways of doing things. (c) there's a reason the word pythonic exists. It's particularly interesting to see the python way of doing stuff, again, even if you don't code in it. It won't all stick, obviously, until you do a real project, but reading is never a bad idea.
