And ironically Python (with Pygame which they also used) is a terrible choice for this kind of game - they ended up making a desktop game that the user would have to download. Not playable on the web, not usable for a mobile app.

At the designing stage, the CEO asked the CTO to "propose a concrete programming language" that would "satisfy the new user's demand," to which the CTO responded with Python. In turn, the CEO said, "Great!" and explained that the programming language's "simplicity and readability make it a popular choice for beginners and experienced developers alike."
I find it extremely funny that project managers are the ones chatbots have learned to immitate perfectly

What does it even mean for a programming language to “satisfy the new user’s demand?” Like when has the user ever cared whether your app is built in Python or Ruby or Common Lisp?
It’s like “what notebook do I need to buy to pass my exams,” or “what kind of car do I need to make sure I get to work on time?”
Yet I’m 100% certain that real human executives have had equivalent conversations.
