" I realize much of #Python's muscle is marketing by big industry players."
That is actually funny to read.
Python has gone the first 25 years of its life with no "big industry player" - and today, if any, the players advocating for Python are big DatA/ML platforms like databricks and snowflakes.
Python's major strength however rely on its conciseness, consistence and expressiveness - which has grown organically as a community driven project since forever.
