On thinking about it, you might be right.

Unless one implements a full dynamic OO engine, the prospect of
implementing python for microcontrollers resembles the task of moving a
palace's furnishings into a trailer park - you'll get a couple of things
into the trailer, but will have to leave the rest outside in the mud and
the rain.

Maybe I should clean up my forth compiler instead, and get it ready for
the prime time.
