Probably, because they can bind the DTML namespace...
I knew that they *could* bind it; it just don't understand why anyone would *want* that feature, given the availability of the other, non-ambiguous bindings.
I know that I used it intensively in the past (for a former employer). Now, I almost dropped DTML and with it the DTML namespace bindung of Python Scripts, although it works as well with the ZPT namespace...
I would argue that it is a misfeature, especially given the bug which it surfaces in 'render' / 'call_with_ns'.
I have seen this several times: When a bug comes to the surface, a feature is reclassified as a misfeature... I do not need this feature (unlike other reclassified things) but maybe, fixing the bug is also a solution?
