See here:
   https://guix.gnu.org/de/manual/devel/en/html_node/Python-Modules.html

The idea is that "libraries" (or "modules") start with python-, while
"applications" do not emphasize the language they are written in. Calibre,
for instance, also is not called python-calibre.

Of course with script languages there is no clear technical barrier;
but a package with lots of binaries will not start with python-, while
software that is mainly used in lines "import xyz;" tends to be called
python-something.
