Seconded on both scores. Specifically, adding to Python all the
features that "lots of people" ask for would ensure Python's
transformation into a huge, bloated language. *THIS* is "what's
wrong with just satisfying people", as here rhetorically asked:
trying to make everybody happy will ensure nobody's happy:-).
