Has it? Because this is literally the first I've heard anyone claim (or claim that others have claimed) Python is on a downward trajectory. If anything it's become the de facto standard language for anyone doing anything, other than low-level hardware programming; from data science glue code to web applications to one-off scripts to backend pipelines to command line tools, it seems like "Python" is the default answer these days.
