The real question is how did Python avoid the toxicity of the Linux or bitcoin dev community (remember the block size debate?)

Though there was a developer who was forced to quit a while ago.

I think the Bitcoin part is simple - it doesn't have the perverse incentives of an investment vehicle. Everyone's financial stake is indirect and diffuse, it's not likely that any given PEP is directly connected to a developer's bottom line (though presumably this happens occasionally).
