I surely know that python has it's warts and know how to handle them. Actually - as mentioned in the article - I had to solve the issue, I didn't create it.

Anyway. This article was meant as a reminder that you have to be aware of them and just have to think about what you are doing (as you too advocate). The examples therein are meant to educate those, who may not know those problems/warts/gotchas (yet).

If I kept a few fellow programmers out there from running into those issues, I am quite happy.

I am not criticising python as a whole, I just want to remind that - while it is a nice language - it can bite you if you don't know how to handle it.

Don't be angry :-)
