Whatever you prefer the syntax for join and split to be, I prefer the opposite, but even if you quote Matz that doesn't mean your way is the right one.

- lixquid 10y agoI don't think they were quoting Matz as justification for why Python is wrong, they were quoting Matz to justify why what they don't like about Python isn't the wrong way. The whole point is that every language has something that someone doesn't like about it and every language is "good enough" for some subset of people. Instead of attacking what points everyone does or does not like about X, it's instead better to learn from each other and take the best parts.
- pmontra 10y agoExactly. This is what I believe Matz was thinking.
