> That would add complexity to the implementation That's the job of a good language: to move the necessary complexity to the core, so users of the language do not have to address it by being clever. > Being overly clever in your personal view is inherently subjective and therefore unarguable non sequitur: I write the most boring plain python that can get the job done. I see other prolific python devs reveling in writing obtuse code (probably as jokes? frustrated standup comics?)
