Indeed. There's also embedding, where I suspect there's a much higher likelihood that performance isn't key. And in your survey, I'd split out "needs the Python/C interface to be fast" from "needs internal operations to be fast, but data transfer between C and Python isn't as critical". I suspect there's a lot of people who believe they are in the former category, but are actually in the latter...
