I am very confused - I made that statement in response to a post of yours (
unless I got the attribution wrong) in which you seemed to be arguing
against the proposal.

But If I goaded you into making a strong case that I completely agree with

And for the record:

I have put that very bug into production code.

And I do use strip() with things other than white space — though never
