I wonder what is left of Python after your list of exclusions.
There are plenty of features that /I/ consider must-have, which Python
doesn't have. It has to emulate them, unsatisfactorily, with variables
or classes or functions, or do without.
Please list all these features. Precisely what is unsatisfactory about
the emulation? Please state why you're still here if Python is such a
poorly designed language that it doesn't fit your needs. Or is it
simply that your mindset cannot get to grips with something that is
different to that you've previously used?
No, please, let's not ask BartC to list these features. We've already
well established Bart's point of view, let's not revisit this debate.
He prefers very different languages than Python. We get it. We don't
have to try to convince him to like Python, it's been tried, it doesn't
work.

So why isn't he politely told to shove off as he's not welcome on this
Python list?
