That's my aspiration for the strict mode, yes. (I provide "full
disclosure" on that fact.) Beyond that, strict mode, is well, strict.
So, it may be interesting to people who want more "strictness" in
Python. For example, some time ago, "type annotations" were introduced,
and quite many people (though not everyone of course) aspire to make
their programs more strict using them. The "strict mode" proposed here
is similar, but explores different dimension of strictness.

Both (and many more around!) of those projects are Pythons. So, not
only it can be, it should be done in as many projects as possible. (In
which specific, is up to their maintainers.)
