I apologize for my mistake!

Indeed I found some discussion threads to the different points by 
checking the python.org-search. Especially the differences to JAVA and 
C++ was obviously discussed at about 2001. I will study the expressed 
arguments carefully and try to compare the different concepts. I also 
will try to read the developers discussion threads - I have not found 
yet. Hopefully I am convinced afterwards.
But befor the proof of the Discussion threads: Sometimes ideas may also 
be interesting? For instance to make something static by a simple 
keyword static?  (An Argumrnt that counts may be, the very simple use of 
it and the explaining of concept free of syntax bloat for introductory 
lectures to programming?)  But there may be a reason, that there is not 
such a concept in python - I may find it.

Again, sorry for my ignorance!
