MicroPython works quite nicely on Picos and other MCUs with sufficient 
RAM. A few weeks ago I wanted to interface with a DHT11 sensor.

https://www.adafruit.com/product/386

The MicroPython approach worked with no problem. The C library for the 
Pico SDK did not. The interface is rather bitchy about timing and it took 
me a while to find a C routine that worked.

Sure, if you need blazing speed Python isn't the tool. For this 
application the temperature and humidity isn't changing that rapidly, you 
can only read the sensor every couple of seconds (part of the timing 
problem) and writing the values to an OLED display isn't time consuming.

Adafruit has also developed CircuitPython. It's even easier although the 
last time I looked it didn't handle interrupts. However for many projects 
interrupts only add complexity.
