In practice the tool doesn't have any blame feel to it. When I commit code that causes problems Squash correctly identifies me and lets me know what to fix. And when I was mistakenly chosen I'm still a good candidate for triaging the bug an

It currently has clients for Java, Objective-C, Ruby and Javascript. So it most likely supports any application you're working on as long as that application has a git repository. Feel free to contribute a Python client.
