Seems to me that the major design choice in picking Python is based on the availablity of 'generators'. I only dabbled in Python a long time ago; I wonder what is so 'brilliant' about Python.
From what I can tell, such features are only popular amongst people who don't see them for what they are - an ad-hoc, informally-specified bug-ridden slow implementation of half of Common Lisp. ;)
