I am no Python expert either, but i am a competent perl and C++ programmer. After about 4 years of tweaking and changing Python code, I've learned to appreciate it's power, but also it's simplicity.

In general, I agree, but I question a language that relies on indent level for blocking and don't let you include blank lines for readability. I guess it's ok when you get used to it. But then again, I mostly work in tcl at this point... :-)
Of course, YMMV
