For me, it’s because Chris is part of the team I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. I will assume ego-driven naïveté over malice. It’s not unheard

  Thank you, that's not entirely wrongbut not the full picture. Our initial explanation had two problems actually, 1) we were "ambitiously optimistic" (different way of saying "ego-driven naïveté" perhaps :) ) and 2) the internet misread our long-term ambitions as being short-term goals. We've learned that the world really really wants a better Python and the general attention spans of clickbait are very short - we've intentionally dialed back to very conservative claims to avoid the perception of us overselling. We're still just as ambitious though! -Chris
