So? Deprecate the old syntax?
I tried to get people to agree to deprecate an old syntax that
was worse. I also wrote an automated upgrade tool that would
fix people's code.
I couldn't get it approved. As far as I can tell, the official
position is that parser bugs and language inconsistencies are
permanent.
I share your frustration.
I saw your code to automate a fix in support of DIP65, but I
haven't seen any code to automate updating the alias syntax. If
you have this on hand would be willing to share it?
