Incredibly there seems to be no sign yet of an S-curve type saturation (which would be only normal at this point of the Python hype cycle).
Would be interesting to control by repeating the analysis with other languages to see if that exponential growth is Python specific or really the exponential growth of all open source
Maybe publish in JOSS?
