That's why I asked for a small example which used logging as documented and demonstrated a problem.

I think you'll find that in Python usage in general and the Python stdlib in particular, exhaustive checking of input parameters is not the norm. I'm not saying that no error checking is ever done nor that it should never be done, but your "NEVER" doesn't seem to hold up, as the stdlib contains many counterexamples. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue30767> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
