Hmm, do you say Python 3 is "cult-like" without survey other popular, programming languages? There are many popular languages which separate bytes and unicode string explicitly and string is not byte-transparent; C#, Java, ECMAScript, (including families like TypeScript), Rust, Swift, Julia, and more. I can't agree that it's cult-like behavior. I think it's practical design decision. Regards, -- INADA Naoki <songofaca...@gmail.com> -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
