What something was meant to do has never, ever stopped people. People find creative ways to use tools in unintended ways all the time. It's what we do.

We can call this dumb or get misanthropic about it, or we can try to understand why people all over the world choose to use Python in "weird" ways, and what this tells us about the way people relate to computing.
