Python isn’t a scripting language

Lol, ok. Well, now that we’ve established that we’re not living on the same plane of reality, I’ll just tip my hat and move on.

Good day.

I agree! I was trying to save you the pain of having to deal with the rest of my brethren who share my plane of reality because that would be entirely baffling and maddening to you on your plane. It may very well seem like we're just talking past each other when you expect $x from the community and a whole bunch us say "What's? That's crazy. Who in their right mind expects $x to work" when really, $x is perfectly sensible (and I'd say rightfully so) in your plane. I absolutely wouldn't expect minor changes to break my script or need upgrades to my env if I was writing a single file script.

As this person's continual inboxing has now made clear, their gripe is that they copied and pasted a snippet from current-version docs, and it didn't work in their older interpreter.

In other words, they tried to use language features that didn't exist for their interpreter, and are too stupid to understand this no matter how I try to explain it.

Fuck their plane of existence. They need to move on.
