You can't always trust your libraries and you might have to fix bugs or dig in the source code to figure out how/why something works.

Trusting foundations is the only way anything in computing gets done.

If I’m at the point where I’m debugging 3rd party code, a little bit of unfamiliar Python syntax is the least of my problems.

If you've done any kind of expertise work, digging under third party layers is a very regular exercise.
