IMO, robustness is also a quality of a language.  In language
like C and C++, it's difficult to write a program that isn't
full of potential crashes and exploits: buffer overflows,
broken pointers, memory leaks, etc.  Python eliminates many of
those sources of problems, and is therefore a "more robust"
language.
