that's fair, but newer languages like Rust have the benefit of hindsight, and can mandate one way to do things. to be clear, i'm all for that.

i don't think it's possible to do that any more with Python, the genie is out of the bottle. but you can get close with things like Black (auto-formatting) and Poetry (nicer deps mgmt and so much more). of course, how would a beginner know this? hopefully some day tools like that will become the default answers
