Monty Python had the goal of making people laugh, while python-ideas has the goal of improving Python. With those priorities, we can have fun, but not at the expense of potential contributions and contributors.
Other people aren't perfect, but sometimes you have to adapt to them for the sake of other goals. It may be easier if you think of it as writing a nasty workaround to an unmaintained or wontfix API, or, back in the 00's, doing anything at all to make a site work on Internet Explorer.
