Proposing a struct syntax for Python
Story time When I go on vacation with a fellow Python developer, inevitably I will talk about Python. 😁 Back in September, Andrea and I drove the Cabot Trail with our friends Dusty and Jen, which led to a discussion about the match statement and how Dusty and I both wished

I've had problems in the past where this could have been useful, like ingesting millions of lat/long positions and trying to string them together in a "trail". But, I was still able to handle that fine with namedtuple without too much pain.
Thoughts?

I wouldnt hate its existence, and certainly i would always prefer anyone use this over namedtuple.
At the same time, i think i would never use it. 90% of my classes these days are dataclasses, and the set that don’t inherit from anything, and have no methods are vanishingly small
I don’t know that harkening to rust structs makes much sense in python, (…which can have methods)
