Comment by turnsout

You're getting a lot of comments along the lines of "Why don't you just ____," which only shows how Stockholmed the entire Python community is.

With no other language are you expected to maintain several entirely different versions of the language, each of which is a relatively large installation. Can you imagine if we all had five different llvms or gccs just to compile five different modern C projects?

I'm going to get downvoted to oblivion, but it doesn't change the reality that Python in 2025 is unnecessarily fragile.
