I think that if the other object is a string, trying to get a UUID from it to compare UUIDs makes more sense than converting the UUID to string and comparing strings. Several different strings are perfectly fine for uniquely identifying the same UUID, so you seem to have gotten this bit backward, as Tal Einat pointed out.
However, I strongly oppose automatic conversions, and, by proxy, this idea. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/AHACOVSPOVRJ257P2XSPPDA7I6AKE5IJ/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
