Antti Haapala <an...@haapala.name> added the comment:
I've been hit by this too, in similar contexts, and several times. It is really
annoying that it is easier to coerce an UUID or UUID-string to a string than to
coerce to a UUID. Usually when the copy semantics are clear and the class is
plain old data, Python lets you execute the constructor with an instance of the
same class:
>>> bytes(bytes())
b''
>>> bytearray(bytearray())
bytearray(b'')
>>> int(int())
0
>>> complex(complex())
0j
>>> tuple(tuple())
()
I don't to see why this shouldn't be true with UUID as well.
