I tend to write anything for distribution in Rust or something that compiles to a standalone binary. Python does not an easily redistributable application make lol

Yeah but then you either need to compile and redistribute binaries for several platforms, or make sure that each target user has rust/cargo installed. Plus some devs don't trust compiled binaries in something like an npm package
