It may be a matter of taste and policies, Dave.
I am talking about whether to write your code so it looks good to you, and
dealing with issues like error messages only when needed, or whether to
first do all kinds of things to catch errors or make it easier if they pop
up.

Welcome to the awesome world of GUI development.
I was writing a subclass of the Checkbutton class
It is perfectly explained in the standards here [1] saying that:

Both. As they say, coding means writing for other people first, for
