It makes things that are trivial in other languages like copying and pasting chunks of code around or auto formatting code as you type into a very hard problem just to save some delimiters. It looks nice in code samples but sucks in real production codebases.

I am sorry I am replying so late, but seriously: you are copy-pasting code? Don't repeat yourself!

One more case of Python making good things easier and bad things harder!

Same thing with auto-formatting code as you type: IDEs are toxic you know, you would be more productive with vim.
