I think the reason the parent mentions GraalVM instead of Jython is that Jython can't use C libs like numpy. But GraalVM lets you compile JVM to a native binary, so maybe there is some way to use Cython in JVM.

Named parameters _might_ be my favorite part of Python. I don't understand why every language doesn't have them.
This is the funniest satire that has ever made it to the fp of this site. I was literally LOLing at the videos.

I don't know why it isn't as popular, but CatBoost should be on the list too https://catboost.ai/
The article recommends RF for tabular data because it is easier. In general I agree, but newer tools are making NN for tabular data as easy as can be... see, for example, fastai https://docs.fast.ai/tabular.html
Surprisingly, there are a lot of good tips in the US Gov's Plain Language Guidelines https://www.plainlanguage.gov/guidelines/
This is not a bad pitch
