Not that my opinion particularly matters, but I would say "sure" to this one. On the other hand, I really don't use raw strings that often, and the places I do are pretty much solely regexes, which shouldn't really be passed bytes. > and long byte-strings (b'''...''')? What would: b"""abc def""" translate into, exactly? [ 97, 98, 99, 10, 100, 101, 102 ]? [ 97, 98, 99, 13, 10, 100, 101, 102 ]? Platform-dependent? (Ewwww!)
