It's a huge leap to conclude "for greenfield projects ... using Python is not necessarily a very good idea".

  It's certainly a leap... but is it wrong though? You might conclude either "yes" or "no", but dismissing it outright is I don't think very conductive to a good conversation.

    Unjustified leaps tend to be wrong. And yes it's wrong because if you apply the criterion consistently then you will end up never choosing any language or tooling ever because everything has some kind of problem.

      Sure, but you can choose the one which is the most suitable with the least amount of problems. I would argue that Python has many problems, so it's suitable for a fairly small set of use-cases. (by design, btw)
