Thanks. You do make a lot of good points. Attrs just has the features I need for now. It certainly feel a touch verbose but I’m happy to pay the price.

  can you tell me which parts feel verbose? In my recent usage, I've not found myself using the older, more verbose approaches.

    If you use the runtime type validators along with the python builtin type hints you constantly repeat yourself: id: UUID = attr.ib(validator=instance_of(UUID), …other parameters) The type hint helps mypy and pylint work, while the validator is a runtime check by Attrs If your attribute name is longer or you have other parameters to set, that can be a very long line (or lines) of code that you repeat for every attribute
