Python is not stupid the man is it

I see on this link "# Python is Stupid"
http://schlake.livejournal.com/809567.html
Code is

#!/usr/bin/env python
for flour in range( 50, 1000 + 1, 5): # Python is Stupid
print '%.2f %.2f %.2f' % ( (flour), (flour * 0.6), (flour * 0.02) )

Output is corect :D

Just a guess, but the comment may refer to the specification of range.
Specifically, he writes 1000 + 1 to include 1000 in the range, as
range is not inclusive.
