  The sentense actually doesn't start there.   Right before this
quote, there is a phrase "apparently (or just for the occasion :-)".

  While Python may have better chance of succeeding, it doesn't stop
Squeakers to try to make something even better than what we have now
or what the Python version may end up with.
