I have used Python for a long time for glue scripts, build stuff, test systems etc. and I've always thought it was great. I didn't like using it for larger applications though - when I did, I usually got bitten at some point by some effect of the dynamism (regardless of testing). At scale things became more unworkable.
With the type system my opinion on that has changed. We have a pretty large tooling codebase with protocol stacks, GUI, test automation etc. and it's all very maintainable with the type checking.
