+1.

I don't see the need for a lean module in C if it is used sparsely, only
for a few seconds, and patching something in python could be 5 minutes
while in C can be days.

C should be used for the things that can't be done in Python, not the
other way around.

Same here.

But I can't vote with my code... :-(.
