But wouldn't it make sense to have a motivating example? Like the one we're discussing?

It's a discussion to see what other solutions exists for the problem that the thread started discussing. A You and me keep derailing. It's quite depressing. I don't want to be in a constant shouting game with you. I want to discuss ideas. / Anders _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
