Glenn Linderman <v+pyt...@g.nevcal.com> added the comment: Nick says (and later explains better what he meant): The status quo works. Proposals to change it on theoretical grounds have a significantly higher bar to meet than proposals to simply document it clearly.
I say: What the status quo doesn't provide is containers that "work". In this case what I mean by "work" is that equality of containers is based on value, and value comparisons, and accept and embrace non-reflexive equality. It might be possible to implement alternate containers with these characteristics, but that requires significantly more effort than simply filtering values. Nonetheless, I totally agree with msg134654, and agree that properly documenting the present implementation would be a great service to users of the present implementation. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11945> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
