It's a function of how many people really need that solution. It's high enough that it exists. It's low enough that it's not a thing you do by default or even talk about much. But if you need it and it's compatible with your code - it's there.

Actually any sysadmin or scripter wannabe could benefit from nuikta. Twitter even invented pex because of that. Nuikta took some time to become 100% compatible with the latest versions of cPython, but now it's the case so let's all enjoy it.

    I like nuitka and what it's doing, but it's just not that comfortable in every single situation. There's value in seeing the source and being able to modify it in place without a compile&redeploy steps. There's value in dtrace support which as far as I can tell nuitka doesn't have. And other small things like existing profilers which work with cpython stack traces specifically.

    So if there is a reason to use it - great. But that's not every situation.
