"Jim Jewett"
It isn't really stringiness that matters, it is that you have to
terminate even though you still have an iterable container.
Well said.
Guido had at least a start in Searchable, back when ABC
were still in the sandbox:
Have to disagree here. An object cannot know in general
whether a flattener wants to split it or not. That is an application
dependent decision. A better answer is be able to tell the
flattener what should be considered atomic in a given circumstance.
