FIOC vs MOON

How does PYTHON compare to, say, LUA? I see that Lua has been successfully used in many projects. It seems it has less faggotry than PYTHON, and I'm not talking about the FIOC either. It's smaller and doesn't need forks like stackless to avoid sucking. OTOH you don't hear Lua mentioned often, and I don't know it its domain of application may be more limited.

No OOP, everything is stored in 'tables' which is kind of annoying
end statements suck, least in python you don't deal with that shit
Useless syntax like then that you'll always forget to add because you're used to real programming(VB is not real programming)

The only advantage it has over other scripting languages is that it's easy to implement and is speedy unlike _FOIC.  It's basically just programming for non programmers and game devs.  But then again grease monkey does the same thing with {} syntax.
