“AFAIK Perl is only superior to Python for regex.” — Andy use strict;, which has absolutely no equivalent in Python. There are linters, but nothing substitutes the requirement — provided in Perl by use strict — to explicitly declare identifiers (via my). I like Python but it gives incredibly weak correctness guarantees; even JavaScript surpasses it in this regard.
