Another key advantage is granularity if thats the word. The languages that are easy to learn are ones you can do something useful in with little knowledge, and then learn how to do the next thing.
LC is great like that. A very little knowledge lets you do rudimentary things which are fully fledged guis, whereas to get to that same point with Python is hugely more work. Now, when you are there with Python, maybe its easier and less verbose and more intuitive for you from then on. But the rewards with LC come almost immediately. It was the same thing with HC, you could make programs of a sort while knowing almost nothing and then add to what you knew as you went along. That is unique to this style of language. But its not something the guys on reddit value of course.
