I've been exposed to decorators (starting with Java) and have 'gotten' them and I will proudly admit that I despise decorators and don't think they are great at all.

Like many language features, they can be extremely useful and can significantly improve code clarity.

They can also be abused in such ways that clarity is actually destroyed.
