It sounds a bit more understandable if you rephrase it as "a small group of largely unpaid volunteers should find a solution for which millions of users and several billion-dollar businesses will happily abandon their current long-running and well-tested solutions".


First, programmers have choices, and Python's lack of a good user experience on this front will turn off people that have better options with other languages which have found a way to deliver a better experience given the same constraints as python.
