As I said, I don't care what the particular solution is on this issue. However I'm simply trying to anticipate and resolve potential disagreements that could drag this out for a significant period of time. It is clear that Nick and Donald have a disagreement on this issue which is actually not in and of itself packaging related. The clear way to resolve this was to get a pronouncement.

As I've said, I don't think it matters a huge deal whether we use
NotImplemented or not. But please don't treat Guido as some kind of
pronouncement generating machine where you hurl out-of-context
questions at him and then use his response as a club to beat down
discussion. It's rude to Guido, it's rude to Nick and Donald (to whom
Guido has explicitly delegated his BDFL authority in packaging-related
matters), and it's rude to everyone trying to discuss proposals on
their merits.
