Python is powerful because it easily wraps C libraries that do real work! Just kidding mostly.

Not kidding. There's no rule against that though. It's good at it's niche.

    Does that not put JS (node) back on the table?

    I'd say it's the low level language doing the heavy lifting, python or JS in this scenario are just front-ends.

    Hell, I think FORTH has C bindings, that's not power, that's mental illness
