That visceral reaction when someone dares to mention Python and scalability together! Python's GIL (Global Interpreter Lock) is basically the relationship counselor that says "one thread at a time, please" - making true parallelism about as realistic as finishing a project before the deadline. Sure, you can use multiprocessing, but at that point you're just spawning separate Python instances like tribbles on a starship. The background presentation ironically warns about "investing in new frameworks without validating the problem first" while Python devs are frantically trying to AsyncIO their way out of performance bottlenecks. It's the language equivalent of bringing a butter knife to a gunfight and insisting it's actually a Swiss Army knife.
