The real hardcore experts should be writing libraries anyway, to fully take advantage of their expertise in a tiny niche and to amortize the cost of studying their subproblem across many projects. It has never been easier to get people to call your C library, right? As long as somebody can write the Python interface…
Numpy has delivered so many FLOPs for BLAS libraries to work on.
Does anyone really care if you call their optimized library from C or Python? It seems like a sophomoric concern.
