I can probably fix package manager issues by hand, and quickly with a little rubber ducking with the LLM itself. I'm not sure that's a huge problem in the grand scheme.

There's a lot of stuff in Python's favor in regard to coding with LLMs: its wildly popular so there's a lot of references for the right and wrong ways to use it, it can be typed using included libraries - its as simple as telling the LLM "use typing for this", and there are several great lint and unit testing tools to cover the hallucinations and poor decisions. The flexibility seems like an advantage to me personally, but I've always been a Python stan.
