It's totally legitimate for you to write this according to your own taste and use it. I don't think it's bad for Python, or anything like that. You are not an idiot and I am sure you can write interesting and useful programs in Python.

But I do agree that it is not 'Pythonic' - except maybe in the trivial sense that it's written in Python.

I would be happy to go into more detail if you really want it.
