I'm new to Python, but I was under the impression that

a) It was a mainstream programming language, and

b) That the language has a consistent core managed by one
person with a clear vision is an asset; the language doesn't
have to be huge (in grammar and vocabulary) to be useful.

While I am scared about such things as an all-uppercase future,
it's just one of the risks we have to take.
