In reviewing the ongoing arguments about how to make pathlib better, there have been circular arguments about if it is even broken, if it should support bytes, if there should be a path protocol that all functions that touch the filesystem should use, if that protocol should support bytes, how that protocol should be open or closed to allow third party modules to act as paths, etc., etc.
Do not take lots of discussion as a negative. It's better to thrash it out thoroughly first.
If there is headway being made, I do not see it.
It's being made, and I dare say we are close to the end.
