It does make a difference, because sequences (or 'iterables') are a
much more fundamental concept than strings. It's not just one Array
class.

I guess that's exactly the point - what's so special about methods

Nope. I consider modern Python and modern Ruby to be
feature-equivalent. Someone might have some examples, but I really
don't have deep experience in programming Ruby. I've just read the
docs, and played around with it a little bit. Didn't bump into
anything that I was missing in Python, and bumped into several things
that I consider design glitches (mostly perlisms), so I didn't feel
the desire to become more proficient in it.

I don't think it's a good example of duck typing, because it coerces
everything to the particular kind of duck it wants to work with.

From a purely technical standpoint, there are virtues in having a
pre-existing code base that is individually maintained. Ruby people
would only need to maintain the patches that provide blocks, extra
methods and 'end'. Python is the more mature, popular and minimal of
the two, so forking Ruby wouldn't make as much sense.
Obviously history has taken its course, and the two languages exist
independent of each other. But if Ruby started today, would you
implement it from scratch? Or would you rather just add blocks and
'end' to Python?
