I'm concerned that in this thread, and elsewhere, we're not paying sufficient attention to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_load.
Adding a feature to a system can increase the cognitive load in learning the system, and it can also reduce the cognitive load in using the system. Sometimes adding a feature can reduce cognitive load in both learning and using the system, but I suspect that is exceptional. I suggest that in this thread we have more discussion of the cognitive load adding this feature would add to those learning the system. I also suggest, as someone else has already done, that we focus more on the problem to be solved rather than a specific solution. -- Jonathan _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/HJDDLK57OUMAOYTJKDV7IPAIEJGQ3MMC/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
