Python has a lot of syntactic decorum that will be hard to explain to
beginners. Actually, some of it is just plain impossible to explain even to
seasoned developers (why do you have to declare a method with three
parameters yet call it with two?).

It also doesn't have this very fast feedback loop of running queries on the
web browser console and seeing your web page react instantly. The only
language I can think of that offers such a rewarding and positive feedback
loop is Logo.
