Not so, for the same reason that low level languages are more effective computationally but less easy to describe and more difficult for code development.
Lua is more low level and has an extremely isolated and fractured community relative to the current Python ecosystem. It is also non-intuitive and has negligible benefits compared to the current scientific Python ecosystem.
I find the abstractions offered by Python and its standard library to be very easy to comprehend, write, and maintain relative to Lua.
