Well, the word &quot;bizarre&quot; has a commonly understood meaning, but you somehow decided to use it to mean something completely different. <i>That&#x27;s</i> a bit bizarre :P<p>But the article is titled: &quot;Why I Still Use <i>Python</i> for High Performance Scientific Computing&quot;, and it gives the impression that <i>Python</i> - the <i>language</i> - is fast enough for HPSC.<p>In reality, the reason why he <i>&quot;still&quot;</i> uses Python is that <i>the libraries</i> are fast enough for HPSC. But that&#x27;s not what people see when reading posts like this.<p>The message they see is that &quot;Python is fast&quot;, not that <i>some</i> of its 3rd-party libraries are fast.<p>But I should probably stop repeating myself here.
