You're the second person mentioning crime or law. What did I say to give people the impression that I think that using a dunder is a criminal offence? I didn't say that it was illegal or breaking the law, or a felony or even a misdemeaner. I didn't even make a value judgement about whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to use dunder names. I said that dunders are reserved. Not everyone knows this. What should I have said that won't be misinterpreted as an accusation of criminality? -- Steven _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/WENSTMXVV7VXBHFU4NRNV252BF3VHOZX/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
