We agree. I think python is great. I actually asked because python usually makes things dead simple and straightforward.

Unfortunately, I don't think that the "wider audience" is those who are looking for concurrency.

I don't buy this. Many network heavy shops use Python so concurrency is relevant. The language is used in web, finance, cloud, data pipelining/etl, and so many more. Dropbox, Robinhood, Spotify, Instagram, Uber, Google, etc, are the "wider audience" and they certainly care about concurrency.
