And... you think that by writing how good you are at something you actually become good at that thing? Like, I mean, you think that if you write "I, drewcoo, can run 100 meters faster than Usain Bolt" you will indeed run faster than Usain Bolt? What that document confirms is that at one point, when Python was cool, and people liked to talk about Zen Buddhism (probably inspired by Hofstadter's book), someone, semi-jokingly wrote that PEP. And this is all there is to it... You cannot be possibly delusional enough to think that eg. "explicit is better than implicit" is somehow provable or enforceable or can even be properly defined... Like, a lot of Python programmers would agree that context managers do implicit state management or that, in general, decorators create implicit behaviors attached to code of the functions or classes they decorate... and yet Zen of Python PEP still exists, right? So, what makes you think it's some sort of a rule that's never broken by the language it's allegedly applied to?
