The whole "stochastic means to find factual correctness" thing is an error of method, arguing about weights here is nonsense.

I find such statements frightening. Too many people can not tell the different between prevalence ("everybody does it") and factually correct.

I fail to see the purpose of f-strings if they end up as complex as printf formatting. Maybe use printf at this point?

It needs to be a big thing on its own so security people can be onto something important.

Its not "far away in the future". Every other IT job right now is supporting, maintaining and fixing legacy software. These are the software choices of the past and you pay them in manpower.
