This is a fallacy. Just because no-one else has reported it doesn't mean it hasn't caused a problem. I mean, I'm sure there are plenty of spelling errors/typos in the docs that no-one has reported for years, it doesn't mean they shouldn't be fixed when raised. It's also assuming you have seen and remember every single bug report related to this from the past 16 years which, nothing personal, seems incredibly unlikely given how poor humans are at remembering things in the first place. > And are you presuming to speak for all Python users here? I'm presuming to speak for end-users yes, why not? I did ask for other input too you'll note. After a few decades of practice I'm fairly decent at getting into the headspace of users (of which I am one in this case), and I know it's something many developers don't really do well. A common mistake we developers make is to assume that everyone knows what we know and thinks like us. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37563> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
