   In my opinion, life would - in the long term - be easier for these people if they were forced to learn C, C++ or Rust for their projects. But it’s been a while since I was a beginner myself, so there might be some bias here.

    It does, together with expanding. It keeps a list of URL parameters to remove. :-) Naturally, the list will always be incomplete. Feel free to contribute!
