1. Python-ideas is not the right place for this stuff (neither is Python-dev, by the way)
2. Why would anybody care exactly?

  1. Where would be the correct place to talk about a grand state of python affairs?
  2. Like it or not, many use such ratings to decide which language to learn, which language to use for their next project and whether or not to be proud of their language of choice.
I think it's important for python to be popular and good. One without the other isn't too useful.
