TIL I am divine!
By the way, you have the exact energy of someone who would argue about code style: a prima donna who quotes Emerson when confronted with disagreement.
You can build yourself any strawman you want :)
In my first ten years of writing Python, I never argued about code style with anyone. It's only after they brought the bots in that I learned that my style is somehow "bad."
Well, it’s nice you bring up strawmen after you called me a hobgoblin (a delicious word btw). I hope this _divine_ irony is not lost on someone like yourself.
> I learned that my style is somehow "bad."
That’s what you are missing: your style is not bad at all. It’s just your style. Use it for yourself!
