As noted, I disagree that people are not passing components because str(e) displays them the way it does. But we're both just guessing at people's motivations, so there's little point in speculating.
I've no doubt that the current situation encourages people to be lazy -- I know, because I'm guilty of it myself! Writing a few extra lines to store attributes away and format them in __str__ might not seem like much, but in most cases those lines are of no direct benefit to the person writing the code, so there's little motivation to do it right. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
