Referring to lazy Python as "baseline" is a joke.
But isn't it kind of obvious that if you are able to do 180k times improvement, then the baseline is probably not very impressive to begin with. Still, that doesn't take away that the optimizations were impressive, and that it was interesting to read about it.
I think your last sentence has one negation too much.
If it was interesting to read about it, then the criticism did not take away that the optimizations were impressive.
Fixed it.... I come from a language culture were we like our negations :) Also, not native english speaker, so combine the two and you are in for a ride!
