On a scale of 0-10, for Python technical knowledge, you (F.L.) are probably at 9.5 whereas I might hover around 2 - and I will most likely always defer to your expertise in this area. However, I have some experience as a Python student (having learned about programming in Python on my own over the past two years) and as a teacher (*mostly* in a very different field) and I respectfully disagree over this hyper-generalised characterisation of my stated opinion on this subject as "rubbish".
