Its probably bias to what you are used to the most. I think for example copy pasting stuff around in C like languages is way easier than the tab mangling one has to perform in python.

Also python has so plenty of bizarre (i.m.o. not very readable) syntax beyond that. Like

def __init__(self) : for a constructor

the most verbose lambda syntax for something that should make it less verbose to inline functions def x = lambda x: x + 1

logical operators being words while numerical and comparative ones aren’t def x = not a or (b <= c)

private methods not really existing thus needing underscores as a crutch

I don’t wanna hate on python, the ecosystem and libraries around it are amazing but people saying python is the gold standard in terms of syntax and “readability” is questionable i.m.o… There also is a reason why many of new modern hyped languages (which don’t have to abide to backwards compatibility to some other language like mojo) like Rust, Kotlin, Go, Zig, and Swift are C style langs.
