I program in both C++ and Python every day and I'm fluent in both. I would prefer 10000 lines template instantiation backtraces every time to the average python error message.

Clang and GCC error messages have come a loooong way in the last 10 years or so and their quality is impressive.

To be fair, I'm currently stuck at python 3.6 ATM and I hear that python has also improved a lot since.
