They certainly coexist peacefully. No problem there. All I'm saying is that it doesn't support *.so CPython modules. And this is somehow unavoidable since jython is pure java. So my concern is that if an administrator has /usr/bin/python pointing to jython and random package foo provides its own foo.so cpython module and proceeds to run /usr/bin/python to open it, there will be problems. Hence one of the reasons I wouldn't want to offer jython as a /usr/bin/python alternative.
