The current rating of this kata is 6 kyu and I don't think changing it is possible once it is published (unless a mod could do it).
Python version has been solved more than 500 times, so adding test cases is not possible.
Javascript version can be solved with a while loop too.
Why didn't you mark your post as a suggestion instead of an issue?
The test cases for the Python translation are not comprehensive enough, allowing brute force solutions which just use a while loop (like mine), whereas to pass the challenge in JavaScript you have to come up with a more mathematical solution.
Therefore, may I suggest either the addition of such test cases to the Python translation, or to adjust the kata description and lower the associated difficulty rating. Because the current 4-kyu rating is probably too high if you can solve the kata using a simple loop.
lazy boi
What a code wall. It takes a lot of space on this discourse page.
Use
[].map.callon the given stringstrto map over its characters while avoiding the creation of a possibly big intermediate array of characters.This comment is hidden because it contains spoiler information about the solution

A solution using generator comprehension instead of list comprehension for more laziness.
good to know about .find() in es6!! nice one!
