When you could instead be wondering if it really is truly bad practice
or just alternative practice and a reasonable compromise for an
introductory process. Or, you know, just learning Django and not
sweating the little stuff.

Look, if you aren't going to be moving the applications around, the
imports in the tutorial aren't horrible. It's the beginner's tutorial.
People experienced in Python realise that import statements are
flexible, so what's written in the tutorial is only a guide. People
needing to follow every line of code in the tutorial and just learning
Python don't need the extra baggage of worrying about that stuff in the
first tutorial they do.

Every single instructional document you read contains compromises.
