For code implementing a numerical algorithm, I think the ratio of lines needed in Fortran vs. Python is much less than 25, maybe 2 or 3. And once the code is written in Fortran you just compile with -O3 etc. to get good performance and don't need to thnk about translating to Cython, Numba, or some other language.
