Who the hell would call python beautiful has never seen python code in the wild

Too true, python can be beautiful and succinct or like a huge plate of spaghetti cut up with scissors

Every language starts out as beautiful, then it becomes popular, a whole lot of new features get wedged into it, and everyone who's watched a 5 minute tutorial video starts coding in it.

I remember the days when Python, Java and even Perl were considered beautiful.
