My apologies. The thread has gotten VERY noisy, and I did miss the fact that you'd said this; partly because the OP has only had arguments like "namedtuples aren't sequences", which are not what I'd call compelling. I still stand by the sentiment that sample code from the OP is more important than someone else's explanation of why namedtuple might not be suitable, but perhaps the OP sees it as an answered question. I've been keeping the tone as positive as possible, but honestly, I don't think this thread has much hope of being productive at this point, and if you hadn't called me out specifically, I would not have responded.
