I wish I could wave a magic wand and replace all the Python in the world with JavaScript.
The languages are practically equal in terms of features. They're both typeless with layered-on crutches available to make the runaway dynamism less painful. They both have weird footguns and ugly syntax and annoying design flaws, but these are different for each. So if you're forced to use both languages, it's an endless pain in the ass to remember which stupid runtime error can happen in JS but not Python and vice versa.
So JS can replace Python... But Python can't replace JS simply because it's unavoidable on the front-end. Since you must have JS code anyway, why use a language that's functionally very similar but different enough in syntax and API that you'll be writing bugs all the time? Just stick with JS and start drinking like me.
