Thanks to all for many helpful suggestions.
Python, by the way, is verbose when compared to APL. (See
http://catpad.net/michael/apl/ if you don't believe this.) You need to

"concise" is owned by APL.

We have such nice names so the word Python will be something people like and
not something people fear (A massive 12 foot snake) and Pythonic is a
behavior pattern we should all follow! In layman's terms it means we should
all act like snakes a little more!

1) a multi-paradigm language is inherently better than a mono-paradigm
language
2) Python writes like a talented figure skater skates.
