Your answer is confusing even me. ;)

Yeah, I get that a lot. :-)


Let me try an easier to understand explanation. defaultdict *implements*
__missing__() to provide the default dict behavior.

In my experience, the word *implements* is commonly used in two ways, nearly opposite to each other. Ex:

  My company just implemented a version-control system.

Did your company (1) write the code for the version-control system, or did it (2) put the system in use, by downloading an installer from the Web and executing it?
