Python has warts, but IMHO it's weird to identify valid design choices, with pros and cons on each side, as "warts".

If I were listing Python warts, I'd point to things like single-element tuples (1,), the `datetime` support (timezone-naive datetimes are an ambiguous disaster), or the cpython Global Interpreter Lock.

Yep, complaining about self is kinda silly when there are real things to complain about.

My editor supports snippets so moderate python boilerplate is not a problem.
