Honest question: do you think that response has to be done in public? (Whether Guido intended "private" as an alternative or not is a red herring, irrelevant to my question.) I would prefer answers at GitHub: https://github.com/python/overload-sig/issues/5. but that's up to respondents. (Will summarize responses privately and in other channels to that issue. This is an experiment for the Overload SIG: https://mail.python.org/mm3/mailman3/lists/overload-...@python.org/.)
