Saiyang, thank you for the suggestion, but I'm going to decline. The other referenced issue had to do with readability of otherwise incomprehensible output and that's what made it worthwhile. In this issue, you're prioritizing round-tripping at the expense of readability. To me, that is a step backwards. Since people don't normally run eval() on the repr() of a Namespace, round-tripping should take a backseat to readability. And, as you noted, there is already an option to set *dest* if needed. ---------- resolution: -> rejected stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40265> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
