Indeed, so which is being proposed here? My answer is the same in both cases (I don't think it's worth adding to the stdlib) but which justification I need to express depends on which option is being proposed :-) > This feels to me not so different then math.isclose() -- not that complex, > but complex enough that it's good to put a well thought through > implementation in the stdlib. Maybe. It still needs someone to get down to details and propose something specific. And I'll still be between -0.5 and -1 on it, but you don't need to convince me personally, you just need some level of support from *some* of the core devs, and/or broad community support sufficient to persuade at least one core dev to merge a PR implementing the idea.
