More obnoxiously than that even, imo, it’s that pathlib removes trailing slashes. Its impossible (afaict) to reproduce path.join(‘a’, ‘b/‘) with pathlib
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)
