Well over 100m lines of Python as has been publicly stated several times over the years is not "very little".

In a codebase of 13+ trillion lines it's very little.

  • Google has published that it is at about 2 billion LoC not including experiments and scratch use. I don't know if the 100 million lines of Python includes experiments. Also, if the number is old, there is a chance that the number of lines of Python has actually gone down over the years due to the (soft) mandate to stop using it.
