You mean whichever is worse.  Suppose python is the better one (it
might be running on Windows) and some other app is misbehaving with
the multitasking.  Windows will give you the infamous
blue-screen-of-death even though there is nothing wrong with python or
your app.  You can't be more stable than the system even though the
interpreter is really good.
