Beware of Python devs writing Python shell scripts. They're used to using all the brand new (backwards incompatible) language features as soon as they come out. The vast majority have no consideration for a 10 year old PC running a 10 year old OS. The python3.x they write will not run.

Bash, surprisingly, gets backwards incompatible language features too. But the vast majority of bash developers are writing for all computers, not just computers with software from the last 3 years.

Python language could work if you stuck to an old target. But python culture is a problem and makes this very unlikely. What python is, and what python devs deal with, changes constantly. That doesn't work for shell scripts where stability is king.
