Forgetting for a moment the charged context of the conversation itself,
does anyone have any opinions on how this would come to be?
Thank you for reading and hopefully listening,

I'm sorry for the confusion, but what is frozen_tree_set() here, and what
is ipop? frozensets don't have pop or 'ipop', so my apologies that I'm a
bit lost here.

It sorts the list in place. Can you use sorted(item_list)?

So, to make sure I have this right: your proposal says array should be
indexable by a list of indexes as they're currently done, in a tuple,
right? Would this also mean that something like (1:4, 8:10, 13) should be
an acceptable constructor for a tuple?

hen move to 2.7 being substantially smaller, then eventually to
dropping 2.7.

I think that replying with an almost canned response, like the one Ned
proposed ("unless you are seriously proposing a change to the language,
this is not the right list."), would help discourage other list members
from responding where responses aren't necessary.

I certainly like the concept, but I worry that use of __exists__() could
generalize it a bit beyond what you're intending in practice. It seems like
this should only check if an object exists, and that adding the magic
method would only lead to confusion.

I'd certainly be interested in hearing about how this has worked with C++,
but this would certainly make scientific code less easy to misuse due to
unclear units.

I also believe that using a text file would not be the best solution; using
a dictionary, other data structure, or anonomyous function would make more
sense than having a specially formatted file.

Per the comments in this thread, I believe that a better error message for
this case would be a reasonable way to fix the use case around this issue.
It can be difficult to notice that your quotes are curved if you don't know
that's what you're looking for.

I was thinking of using them only as possibly quotes characters, as
students and beginners seem to have difficulties due to this quote-mismatch
error. That OSX has smart quotes enabled by default makes this a worthwhile
consideration, in my opinion.

if it has come up before,
and if there are any compatibility issues that I'm not seeing here.
