Then you need to write up a detailed design document FOR PYTHON that
The best design doc that I know of is code. :-)
Seriously, there seems to be a fair amount of miscommunication in this thread. It would be much easier to communicate using code snippets. I'd suggest pointing out places in the Python code that are lacking and how you would correct them. That will make it easier for everyone to understand each other.
