it's not Pyhton itself, but the fact that it is interpreted into

It really applies to anything that doesn't directly transform into
machine level assembly at a "compile time" step.<br>
<br>
With Java, you compile to bytecode, which (if deemed "hot") is
eventually compiled to some assembly on the target (the system it is
actually executing on). No auditability really, unless you trust
the Java VM (and I do not).<br>
