I'm really enthusiastic about what's happening with PyScript as the opportunities for the right use cases are enormous.

That said, it has really brought out the knee-jerked clichéd responses:

- X is way better than Y

- X is the Y killer / no it isn't

- Did you know Python is really slow?

- Sure you can, but why do this? (implication: don't do this)

To add to the fun, it attracts huge interest, and amongst those interested are a weird set of people who seem to know little about Python, little about JavaScript and seem unable to read before they try something impossible and then post a query about why their almost certainly never-going-to-work attempt hasn't worked! It needs plenty of patience pointing them to the huge pile of matching queries! I'm sure something will be done to give those types a friendly nudge in the right direction.
