    I thought function calls was one of the decently optimized things in Python

      The downvotes are hilarious. Being able to drop down to C is one of python’s selling points, and the title of the post includes the name of the python ref implementation __C__Python.

        There is a difference being able to drop down in C and using exclusively C.

        One of the main advantage of python is being to quickly write code, and using C-based library / part of code written in C (or fortran, or rust for what it matters) when needed.

        “just write C” may lack a bit of nuance.

        Exactly.

        I don’t really care, people will downvote for any number of reasons, and I know I was right, so it doesn’t bug me
