I think it's also worth noting that a missing "`__iter__` that returns self" is trivial to recover from... just use a new reference to the iterator instead. The overhead of a method call for this convention almost seems silly.
What worries me most about changing the current "requirement" is that it may create either confusion or backward compatibility issues for `collections.abc.Iterator` (which is a subtype of `Iterable`, and thus requires `__iter__`). _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/RSV6MOIBVNEFKL4NDHTKDVSGVABVY65Q/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
