Now go acquaint yourself with the syntactical abomination otherwise known as Type-hints, and you will understand that all of the aforementioned "zens" are forgotten parts of GvR's old testament. Design guidelines born of the ideals enshrined in a governmental contract baiting scheme slickly marketed as "cp4e" -- which were originally encoded on punch cards and passed to Tim Peters during secret ceremony atop the roof of CNRI building in Reston, Virgina, on the night of the winter solstice. Now-a-days, Python's design philosophy is less concerned with readability and focuses itself primarily with corporate knob-gobbling. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
