> Python shouldn't cannibalize the niche it filled

It’s too late for that, IMO. Python’s already added async-await because it wants to be C#, type hints because it wants to be Java, and pattern matching because it wants to be Haskell.

People who liked Python because of what made it different from other languages have long since been left behind.
