Manipulating a subset of the application doesn't require the low-level features of C. And by choosing a higher level language for scripting, user scripts can be cross-platform and the user doesn't need to worry about memory management. | |

Usually all such needs are covered by the language in which the app was written in originally, so pyth. is used solely for scripting (handling of data mostly). Very rarely users use it to handle computations. But yes, that is also one advantage. | |
