My inability to understand this stuff is what drove me to do Prothon <grin>.
All the hidden wrapped this and wrapped that confused me to no end.

You're kidding. That seems like a big leap backwards in friendliness. Kind
of a syntax castor oil.
That's explains why Joe Mason did his proposal for Prothon delegation using
that same idiom for Prothon. I thought he was somewhat crazy wanting us to
type all that each time.
What problem caused Python to want to switch to such a general operation?
What is the usage case that is so important that it is making eveyone wear
out their keyboards typing that monstrosity?
Oh well, I guess it gives me one more argument to pitch for Prothon...
