It also means that beginners can reasonably use the language for production projects. Including those who have never had the opportunity to study computer science.
To me, it reflects poorly on a language if pretty much the only reasonable way to learn it such that you can use it safely is via computer science course (or another similarly structured environment - perhaps a work place with senior mentors).
Of commonly used languages, that's pretty much true only of C and C++.
