Yes it is on par but isn't Typescript an attempt to address the shortcomings of Javascript? I'm not saying Typescript is bad but it's a strange example to reach for when arguing for Javascript.

Python is used by a huge number of professional developers for commercial applications, it is not targeted specifically towards beginners. Also, I don't see how it being a go-to language for a lot of beginners is a bad thing. A language being more complicated doesn't inherently make it better.
At the end of the day there are use cases for Javascript just as there are Python. The people using Brython will have their own reasons, just like you have yours for using Javascript for your applications.
