Pythons weak typing means it never knows what is what. It’s up to the programmer to not screw it up.

I think it's more that a ton of popular python libraries (things like pandas, tensor, etc) are actually built in C, so python is just C wearing a mask

Not just libraries, the entire language itself is actually C under the hood

not really what i was going for

One of the main implementations of Python is CPython, which is written in C or C++

one of python's strong suits is it's foreign function interface. it's very easy to call code in other languages from python, which can speed execution up significantly
