My advice to you: Stop fighting that "misconception". See the other responses to back up the idea that Python is interpreted. The existence of a Python compiler is also not relevant here, as the linked project does not list that as a supported Python variant.
Let's assume that by some technicality you are not wrong. The "misconception" is so common that it is generally a fact in peoples mind. Rather than convince them, you are destroying your own credibility and probably making a fool of yourself in their eyes. And remember, I prefaced this with you not being wrong. It's worse for you if you are wrong. Just stop for your own good.
