I think it's okay to leave these as 0, 1, 2 because they have a long and well known tradition across multiple languages. The named versions are just alternatives available for end-users. The numbered forms also let us avoid a bunch of otherwise unnecessary imports (which affect start-up time and occasionally create load order bootstrapping issues). Antoine, what do you think? ---------- nosy: +pitrou, rhettinger _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37635> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
