Yeah but fuck all that python is good enough for most beginners. Variables, scope, loops, functions, operators... Once you get some of the principles down switching to C++ or similar isn't nearly as bad.
Being a person that tried to learn C/C# from scratch in my early days python was a good gateway language.
