I don't see any language in the blog post about "people new to programming to pick up". In fifteen years of using Python, the only people I see getting burned are, conveniently, the folks writing blogs on the subject. No one I've worked with or hired seems to be running into these issues. It's not to say that people don't run into issues, but the problems seem exaggerated every time this subject comes up.
