Perhaps this is an acknowledgment that any Tom, Dick or Harry 
armed with Python has the equiv. skills of someone with the above 
credentials.  Paraphrasing, "you can either have N years of skill 
with complicated toolsets X, Y, and Z, or you can know how to do 
it the easy way with Python."

Or, as you say, someone needs to send the OP a copy of 
_Recruiting for Dummies_ along with _How not to Crosspost for Idiots_

Or, perhaps they just have their terminology off.  "Corba" is a 
lot like "cobra" which is also a snake, like a Python.  ("We've 
got Corba, right here in River City.  That starts with 'C' and 
that rhymes with 'P' and that stands for Python!")

I've gotta stop with the musicals... :)
