Here it is again...  Python bypassed/discounted because, of all things,
scoping by indentation!?!?

This used to surprise me.  Until I hear more and more otherwise
reasonable programmers list this as their number one reason for
shunning Python.

I gauge design defects by how much after market
discussion/documentation a feature generates/requires.   Scoping by
indentation is a whopper of a defect.

Could the PyPy people find some way (I don't how) to eliminate this
stumbling block going forward??  That is, after they eliminate the GIL!
