 There are few thing in
 
{{{core/management/__init__.py}}}(https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/core/management/__init__.py)
 those look strange.

 1. In line
 
257(https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/core/management/__init__.py#L257)
 there is the code like `sorted(x)[0]` which is similar to `min(x)`. But
 the second one looks better, works for O(N) but not O(N log N) and doesn't
 spend memory for the new object.
 Sure, time and memory optimizations are negligible in this case, but
 readability is more important.

 2. In line
 
261(https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/core/management/__init__.py#L261)
 we declare list of used options but use only to understand if option was
 already used. So while we don't need order, but only want to check, if
 option is already used. So set is better than list both semantically and
 complexity (~ O(1) instead of O(N)).
