To be clear, I also think that PEP 458’s concept is sound and I think it’s the 
right direction to go in. The things I think are holding it back are nailing 
down the technical details and getting it so that someone can get a high level 
understanding of what it’s actually doing without needing to read the 
supporting documentation (white paper, etc) and without some level of what most 
would call expert knowledge in the area (though I don’t like to call myself an 
expert, I realize to most people I likely am).
