I would only (jokingly) compare Flask to a cancer in the way its routes API spreads to almost all the new frameworks after it. I also hate the global context.

I would only (jokingly) compare Flask to a cancer in the way its routes API spreads to almost all the new frameworks after it. I also hate the global context. Except for `g`, I feel it adds so much unnecessary complexity in exchange of the theoretical case of having more than one app in the same interpreter. However, I don't find the "ugly" code from the article, ugly at all. Not uglier than the equivalent in Django or other frameworks.
