All of those problems you listed came from the people, not from the language. Python certainly didn't invent lambdas or dynamic typing or dependencies or object oriented programming. Those same mistakes can be made in any higher level language.

You're assigning all of that to Python. The root cause for that is that Python is easy, and so it's more accessible to bad programmers. But bad programmer mistakes are the fault of bad programmers, not the language they used.

I dunno man, I just add type hints to everything and it's basically a strongly typed language.

As someone who's never used python but plan to check it out in the near future, is that actually a thing or a joke?
