Because you have to type less code when writing Python. No braces, dynamic typing and so on. Programs are half the size or less than C# code. The less code, the less chance there is for screwups, the less time it takes to grok and the less work it is to refactor. That's why Python wins every time.


It is much easier on your eyes. Having to scroll through code bloat is just physically painful.
