I've written Python for 14 years and have never seen code like that. It certainly isn't a perfect language, but this doesn't look like a common concern.
People write a lot of Python, because the language is easy to get into for a lot of non computer-science folks (e.g., engineers and scientists) and the ecosystem is massive with libraries for so many important things. It isn't as conceptually pure as lisp, but most probably don't care.
