I want to make it clear that this section of the PEP is intended only to
provide some choices and examples, not to be definitive. I've added this
text:
This could be done in any number of ways, a few of which are outlined
below. These are included for illustrative purposes only and are not
intended to be definitive, complete, or all-encompassing. Other
approaches are possible, and some included below may have limitations
that prevent their use in some situations.
Does that help?
