The point is that python has no version for untrusted users, since it's
been accepted that there's no way to build a python sandbox for
untrusted code. There was actually a small competition to make one but
it failed, since then they don't bother.
Perl does provide a sandbox, hence you can have two interpreters in a
single backend.
Have a nice day,
