For Python I think there's an actual point though: A lot of Python projects are user friendly wrappers for pre-compiled high-performance code. It makes sense to call something "py" to signal what the library is.
Well, it's the same in rust, that's why I agree more with the first interpretation.
There is an existing solution in C/C++, just make some binding and call it *.rs
Both python and rust use py and rs in the same way, to signal that it's the python/rust version of that library.
Of course, there are exceptions, but that's what usually happens.
