I was very impressed with the collective thought process shown in the bug thread. It was quite constructive and I think demonstrative of why python has been such a successful project.

If it was PHP they'd just write it down and claim it's documented behaviour.

  Not consistent with my recollection of PHP since version 5, where they have fixed tons of old inconsistencies from the parser to the API level. Perhaps based on older versions of PHP or merely uninformed snark?
