Writing functions to work around short-comings is not how I like to spend
my time (see my contention above about library code).
Neither do I. That's why in my code you are more likely to see
some_date = get_a_datetime_from_somewhere()
instead of the wall of text that you presented. As you can imagine, I will
not be happy facing a prospect of adding try:.. except's everywhere to port
my code to Python 3.6.
Why would you have to? I am not suggesting that None be the default, simply
that it be available.
