The best senior developers seem to understand what their stake holders really need rather than what is formally requested. It's another communication thing that comes with experience.

I agree. For a long period I thought it was the time. But then I dabbled in machine learning. Programming is easy once you have a plan and if domain & quant determine that, then focus on them. Those take time and/or accreditation

If you want to fast track to senior, start the lunch and learn in your group. You need to communicate with people VERY well. Read, read, read, and read some more. Be PASSIONATE about the beauty of simple code.

Well since I am totally agree with you but the sad part is that the companies doesn’t see that in that way I am a Python developer currently working as Backend Developer and I been applying in others companies and they always reject me because I don’t count with the years of experience even when I have the capability to do what they need.

Also... Avoid inheritance wherever possible, most of the time you really just want composition anyway.
Note: sometimes you see inheritance in python but someone is really trying to enforce an interface. This is common from people coming into python from Java. I didn't like it at first, but now I think it's GREAT!

Correct, is not specialization but general knowledge.
