Python code feels like back in the day when JavaScript was typed using JSDoc comments, and libraries would use all kinds of fantastical object shapes for their option parameters, so users could pass "just about anything" and it would work. You would never know how to configure an Express app without digging through the documentation, for example.

I loathe the Python convention of just using kwargs instead of clearly annotated parameters; most libraries don't even have doc comments in the code, so you're really required to look up the documentation, hope that it actually describes the method you're interested in and contains more than stuff like "foo: the foo to use"—or fall back to rummaging in the library intestines to figure out how it works.

It's pathetic.
