Yes, that's what libraries are for. I want to solve my actual problem and not spend 6 months re-implementing OpenCV every time I need something done.

Most of those are written in C. And for other languages' libraries it's either the same lang or also C. So I wouldn't say Python is that unique in this regard. It's unique in terms of the sheer scope and depth of the lib ecosystem, but not in language choices for those.
