Since node.js requires Python to compile and operate it is going to have to
be there somewhere right?

It would stand to reason. It would also suggest that gcc and git
could be released as 5733OPS options (in the nearish to medium term).

To be a little more precise, though: I doubt Python is needed during
the operation of Node.js, only during the building of Node.js.
