One of the main difference is that pypy supports only R-Python, which stands
for 'Restricted Python".

It is a subset of C-python language.

Don’t EVER make the mistake that you can design something better than what
you get from ruthless massively parallel trial-and-error with a feedback
cycle. That’s giving your intelligence *much* too much credit.
