I'm not sure I should be getting involved, here, but I haven't had my morning tea yet, so what the hey --
It seems like you're hyper-focused on a rather skewed interpretation of my first sentence, to the point that you largely ignore the second sentence. Or at least you seem to ignore everything after the word "but", which, given what the word "but" is often used for, is a rhetorical move that has a way of enabling interpretations that tend to be close to the opposite of whatever was originally intended.
Parent poster has it right. I picked that initial comparison to Python by way of introducing one of the more popular summarizations of Nim, so that I could say why I don't think it's a good summary. If I didn't put it emphatically enough to satisfy you, I apologize. I apparently don't have anywhere near as strong of feelings on the subject; Nim's just a language I like to program in sometimes.
