You mistake the influence of Microsoft and their desire to sell features for progress. Python is actually regressing as a system. It's becoming worse, not better. But it's hard to see the gestalt of it if all you are looking for is the new features. > it's no where near Java That is true. Java is a much more simple and regular (not in the automata theory sense) language. Today, if you want a simpler language, you need to choose Java over Python (although neither is very simple, so, preferably, you need a third option). > You can still write simple Python I can also write simple C++ if I limit what I use from the language to a very small subset. This says nothing about the simplicity of the language...
