Very little of what you're claiming is relevant for FastAPI specifically, which in terms of speed isn't too far from an equivalent app written in Go for writing a web app. You need to research the specifics of a problem at hand instead of making broad but situationally incorrect assumptions. The subject here is web apps, and Python is very much a capable language in this niche as of the end of 2025, both in terms of speed, code elegance and support for static typing (FastAPI is fully based on Pydantic) - https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=test&runid=7...
