Are you saying I was incorrect for feeling that way?
The reason is that you no longer really know what's going on. (And yes, that feeling would be the same if C++ had as rich a library of packages as python for numerical analysis.)
If you are doing something that requires precision you need to know everything that is happening in that library. Also IIRC, I think not knowing what type something is bothered me at the time.

I think they just wanted clarification. If a program is just "make lines of code do thing" then it wouldn't be different.
But if you are used to ummanged code and considering the hardware architecture and memory management when you make a high performance program, working on python can feel like a black box. Things will slow down because there's a lot of "magic" weighing down the program. But not everyone works in that space.
Unlike LLMs, at least thos box can be peered inside of you really want to.
