On “Guido van Rossum exits Python Steering Council”
> it seems to violate at least two pythonic principles
For several years, it seems that "Pythonic" has just meant "whatever Guido likes". In the podcast linked below, he dismisses peoples claims that the walrus operator is not Pythonic as "bullshit because I was in favor of it".
It will be interesting to see how the Steering Council decides what is and isn't Pythonic now that Guido is not involved.
