In this case, our existing C language for writing our production code
is
not well suited for the task we're applying it too. You could make an
argument that the virt-host-validate could be written in Python, but
I think it is preferred to keep all our deployable code written in
compiled languages, leaving the scripting languages for our supporting
build system.
Any hard arguments on why that's preferential? I don't see a reasoning
as to not ship python code as many other project do just fine.
