Python's “Disappointing” Superpowers

What's missing here is an Ienumerable from c#. That's basically anything that can be iterated like a list. So a function could take this enumerable and convert it to a list but should probably reject everything else.

And yes generally agree that Paramus should be not be too accepting. It gets confusing fast.

Python has an Iterable type class for this.
