parsing json is roughly of the type: type Json = None | bool | float | str | dict[str, Json] | list[Json] you might have similar situations for configs e.g. float | str for time in seconds or a human readable time string like "30s"

it's pretty absurd that cloudflare can just effectively cripple a cloud provider by tagging part of their IPv4 range as Iranian and not fixing their issues in over a year (and AFIK have no intention to fix them at all) like I wonder if

It's actually a pretty common law to have in some form to penalize tax evasion and capital flight. Most higher developed countries have it in some form (with varying degree of strictness, scoping etc.). Technically you also pay the tax
