I don't really understand this comment. It was never intended to be a replacement for python in general use; do you mean as a numpy/scipy replacement?
In that case, I guess we'll see. Python will never be a particularly good language for implementing such things, but has become pretty ok for using them once someone has implemented (in another language, and made the python bindings).
Network effect is the real barrier, python itself is very easy to toss for this use .
