It wasn't there for linkbait purposes, it was there because the startup my friend was considering which initiated this post is crazy about python, another startup in progress is all python-based, and python is always coming up in the discussion. If I wanted to linkbait I would have used a more popular language like Java.
Yes doing the keywords is one thing, the built-ins another, and harder as well. But given the success logic and mathematics has had with remaining largely symbolic, and the mathematical nature of python, it might be at least an interesting exercise.
