I don't know how you come to the conclusion that it is a mathematical absurdity but consider this: If you find that common usage propagates something that is incorrect, should we just shrug it off or should we attemp a correction? There is always a chance that one day you find yourself exposed to a learning curve while going through a document. If you just depend on common usage you will probably draw the wrong conclusion. -- Antoon Pardon -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
