[Python-Dev] conceptual clarity (original) (raw)

It might be a good idea to add some use-cases to the PEP. There are several use-cases in the PEP already.

Maybe the use-cases deserve their own section in the PEP, or better yet, be pulled up into the Motivation section.

The problem is, for every use-case where one can show that the existing implementation is confusing, I can come up with a use-case showing where the existing implementation makes more sense than anything proposed.

Uh, I don't think that is the intention of use-cases - they're there to inform the design, rather than to show how a specific implementation can be used.
