Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: PyLab at 100% against Google Play Console's 57%. PyLab also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Google Play Console's advantage is ratings volume (203 vs 1) and chart position (#32 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
