Idk about the internal affairs, I just really don't like Python for web backend kind of things. It's taking them way too long to sort out parallelism and packaging, while NodeJS got both right from the start and gracefully upgraded (no 2->3 mess).
Also I used Python way before JS, and I still like JS's syntax better. Especially not using whitespace for scope, which makes even less sense in a scripting language since it's hard to type that into a REPL.
