>Even if Python is the best general-purpose programming language today, playing down its performance problems suggests you're better at writing fast Python code.
I don't think this is how signalling works among programmers. Downplaying Python's performance problems tells me that you probably haven't used other languages enough and are defending Python either out of ignorance or to save face. A good signal is more like "Python is slow as shit, but we make it work". There, now I'm programmerer than you.
