I mean yes, it's a higher level language. Python's system ignorance goes deeper than, say, Ada's, which in turn goes deeper than C++'s, which goes deeper than C's, which goes deeper than many of its predecessors, which go higher than x86, which goes deeper than PDP-11, which goes deeper than logic gates, which go deeper than transistors.
But what's the point? Which languages do we reject because they are sufficiently dissimilar to transistors? Should we all start writing code in VHDL?
