yep, corresponding python slogan from PEP-20: "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it." this was the compelling argument for python to those who were struggling with large and hard to maintain legacy perl codebases. python was supposed to be a constrained, simple language that encouraged readability- ideally a solution to the problems everyone was facing. history really does appear to repeat it seems, even in computerdom where the timescales are shorter.
