Georg Brandl added the comment: I seem to recall that this was rejected into the realm of linters in a python-dev discussion.
If there is a chance of false positives, having Python emit the warning would be annoying because there is no convenient way of telling it to shut up about it. At least people can choose not to run linters, or configure them to their taste. ---------- nosy: +georg.brandl resolution: -> rejected status: open -> pending _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16429> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
