(re "data product", say for example, Cockroach DB which I have no affiliation with and already has a python integration)

With platforms like DataBricks and Airflow that are heavily inclined towards python, it feels somewhat unavoidable to offer a python "import myproduct" option. But, is it truly necessary to be part of that python ecosystem to survive as a data product?

I know: python has a vibrant community, it's a virtuous cycle because every data lib is in python and therefore every data platform / analyst uses it etc, why would you ever not want to just add your product to that ecosystem etc. I get that, but that's also why I'm asking the question
