I have fond memories of using Python 8-10 years ago, but looking at it today, I'm not sure I see compelling reasons not to just use C# instead.

I can have real static typing if I want it. I can also have dynamic typing if I want that. I can use lambda functions. I have LINQ. I can use ScriptCS or some of the new Roslyn stuff if I want to use it as a scripting language. Unix support is not as great, but they are coming along with that. There's no GIL.

Is there some killer feature for Python that I'm overlooking?
