one of the biggest differences between the k way and the python way too is actually limitation. in practice python has a bunch of stuff that doesnt fit too well together necessarily but that you can put together to make whatever you want often without much knowledge underlying what youre using (like how one can make a neural network with no linear algebra knoweldge) in the array languages you have a set vocablary and only a few ways of putting them together such that you become fluent with the whole languages and you brain starts to just put whole correct functions or programs together in the way one might do with a natural language you know well. Its a great exprience and it changes how you think. HOWEVER, I wont pretend for a second this does not come at a cost. The real power comes from fluent use of a small vocabulary meaning you dont get the immediacy of libraries, IO has to be dealt with by the programmer more so than in languages where you have alot of help form libarires and frankly non algorithmic code in these languages can be really funky and rarely as good. Unless you are writing very algorithmically intense stuff imo array langagues are best suited to embedded use in another language or not at all. For you and for most people I think things like the python you've shown there works plenty well enough.
