I'd also say: you don't necessarily need to pick! Python is really fast to learn, and you can be productive with it really quickly. JavaScript does really well as a slow-burn language - it's totally doable to use the little bits that you need and pick more up as you go (it's also got a crazy amount of variety in its ecosystem, and I'd say it's probably good for the sanity not to try to learn all of the things at once).
Python's a lovely language :)

This actually makes a lot of sense.
Thanks for the feedback!
