Agreed -- there are a lot of edge cases to work out, and ther

I'm actually not sure, so

Understood, and I agree, I have seen someone make a similar argument for
using RegEx. Here are my main points...

completed.
3) Frequent Task - It is to my mind as useful as str.strip() or
str.r
I would use list comprehension even if there were some other way to
translate as it is straight forward.

str.replaceall().
My reasoning is that while it is currently possible to eas
