Sounds like Python is so flexible you could metaphorically hang yours with it. :)

While burning down the room at the same time!

If you want to forget how to program... learn Python :)
Python may have some advantages, like speed on learning it and making things, but it's a "weird" language. The most weird thing about it, is that it uses spaces to define blocks of code :?

And don't forget 4 spaces != a tab
I hated that in the beginning but it really forces you to code cleanly and everyone has to use the same formatting.
I love python :P

Everyone has to use the same formatting within a
single source file, but there aren't a lot of
restrictions across files. The thing about tabs
is that, no matter the spacing chosen for a given
file, one literal tab character is equal to some
number of spaces, and some chuckle head will
accidentally hit "tab" and hilarity will ensue.

True enough. I haven't really been bitten by it in a while as we have
settled into a common syntax amongst our team, but in the early days learning python I ran into that all the time.
These days I always have pycharm do code reformatting anyway to better follow (most) PEP8 rules.

Indented code != Clean code :)

I've seen crappy code, well indented...

Cheers!
