I completely agree.

Of course, as I've never really used a debugger, I believe I know python
very well--the only problems I really need help with are those using other
modules, like PyOpenGL and PyGame (I'm pretty good with both currently
though).

All excuses, of course--I really should be using the convention for clarity.
 I've just learned it this way and I don't really care to unlearn it.
