It's not just the tooling. Having tried to work with Python in Intellij, the lack of typing means you literally have to GUESS what any non-primitive object can do.

It might also be an unhappy coincidence, but the library I was playing around with (scrapy) also had HORRENDOUSLY documented code. With Java/Kotlin, you can just click into any method/class and you'll get a useful doc string 99% of the time. With Python, I had to read the (incomplete) documentation.
