def foo() -> t.Iterator[T]:
[... 300 lines of code]
```
Is this a generator function? I'd argue that whether it's a ge
I don't really disagree with most of what you wrote! And agree that decorators,
specifically, are a pretty good solution within the scope of an individual
package.
But I would quibble with this:
