I'll bite: Impossible to write pure functional style code in python, hence it loses any elegance contest right out of the gate. ;)
I work in a python shop now, and the code I've written the last years must be the ugliest of my career. If it's too complicated to be solved with a list comprehension, it will be so much uglier than lambdas in a language with a form of piping.
