I think so too. I think Python is a better fit than Ruby or PHP, even
though both of those alternatives are similar to Python in style,
power, and performance (from a big-picture view of the entire
programming language landscape). Which is one reason I've been such an
advocate for Python on the i.

How optimized is the NumPy support? [...] Are the NumPy binaries IBM is releasing
equally optomized for the OBMi CPUs?

Where did you get the idea that IBM is releasing NumPy binaries for i?
Maybe I have not read carefully enough; do you have a link?
