As does a recent essay by Eli Bendersky, IMO. I believe it could lower
the barriers for entry into the "non-committer" class of developer. This
should make it easier for people to adapt Python to their own purposes
whether or not they want to contribute to the open source code base, but
also encourage people to investigate the compiler's innards.
