Mostly projects / products that start off with very low usage thus python is perfectly fine (Why overoptimize). And then it becomes useful - and a rewrite isn't worth it.
How is that Python’s problem though? If you paint yourself into a corner by choosing the wrong language then eat the rewrite or eat the hardware costs.
There was a consensus after the Python 3 debacle of “No major breaking changes”. We seem to have lost that because of moneyed interests and that’s sad.
That's such a strangely distorted world view. If a car company releases a, idk, trunk-extension in response to customer feedback would you go "How is this Ford's problem? If you didn't think about the trunk size eat the loss and buy a new car" ? Python developers want python to remain useful to the developers who want to keep using the language. It's not an incomprehensible motivation.
