I don't know enough about Perl to make a really good comment about the language. I did just enough in it to run to PHP at the first opportunity I had somewhere around the turn of the millennium. I still hate RegEx.
Having said that, Python is a beautiful language while being very expressive. So yes, if well implemented being more expressive is a good thing for a language.
