Also bear in mind that the BDFL doesn't simply make pronouncements in a 
vacuum...he really does take these arguments into account (when he has 
time to read them) which influence his decisions.

(You see, instead of the classic angel and devil hovering over his 
shoulders, he has little Fredrik Lundhs and Greg Ewings and Nick 
Coghlans and all the others, arguing the fine points of pythonicity, 
each trying to sway him to to their point of view...

...the poor ba***rd.)
