I don't think the length of program matters so much, especially with type hints making it easier to maintain larger projects.
That being said, it's pretty well known in the community that distributing any kind of end user software is a nightmare with python (though there's a small group of people who insist that it's not that hard to get people to install python to run their program. Those people are nuts).
The biggest reason I use python for as many projects as is practical, though, is because it has an incredible community that I love to interact with. Unless I truly need something to be scalable, python is always going to be my hammer of choice.
