I know both Python and Awk. Do I go around telling people "stop using your preferred tool, even though it's efficient enough and works fine, use this other esoteric one instead"? Hell no.
And what if instead of "stop using your preferred tool" the person says "there's this other tool I use and I find it makes these sorts of tasks easier; You might like it, too."
It's much faster to type out the awk line then to write the same in python.
