A couple reasons come to mind:

    * education 
    * want to make it better (extend it, fix bugs, etc)
    * want to see how it relates to the implementation of other languages
      (Ruby, Perl, Tcl, etc)

Sure, but not everyone works at the Python layer.  Which is a good thing,
because if everyone confined themselves to Python code nobody would fix
problems in the language implementation or enhance it.
