But you can't just change it without breaking the code of anyone who's relying on the current behavior. If we could say "no one relies on that", that's would let us move forward with such a breaking change. But I don't think we can make that determination. And we're generally conservative with such breaking changes. I think the current behavior doesn't make much sense, although I haven't completely analyzed the issue. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39601> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
