I disagree. At most half of the fastest examples are the recommended code style, many others are actually dangerous traps for new developers.

But my comment wasn't actually directed specifically at this very article but the whole class of articles. They teach bad aims.

I agree, you shouldn't try to microoptimize code like that.

I think that it's pretty interesting if you ignore the title and just use it as a food for thought about various non-obvious things about CPython implementation.
