Having a summary of objections/critiques in one place is far better
than
expecting people to wade through multiple huge threads.
But Mark's repo doesn't replace any of the threads -- it just repeats
Mark's own arguments, which are exclusively focused on the examples in
the PEP (it's as if Mark read nothing *but* the examples).
I've read all the PEP. *All* of it. Several times.
I would encourage others to read it all carefully as well.
Anyone who just reads the abstract and introduction might well think
that PEP 622 is a wonderful thing without any flaws. Reading the whole
PEP and thinking about its application reveals its flaws.
By choosing examples of your choosing, I am making an effort to be as
fair as possible. Probably more than fair, in this case.
Throughout the critique, I have attempted to be objective where possible
and fair where objectivity is impossible.
Please point out anywhere I have failed, I'd like the critique to be as
fair as possible.
For examples where PEP 622 works poorly see the
"Irregularities and surprising behavior" section.
I would also bring you attention to my rigorous analysis of the possible
application to PEP 622 the entirety of CPython.
If I have made any mistakes there, I'd be happy to correct them.
Cheers,
Mark.
