Did you actually read what I said? The problem is not to understand what dict.__add__ does. It's to understand what code using the + operator does, without knowing upfront whether the inputs are dicts.
The + operator adds two things together. I don't understand the issue here.
I'm not expecting you to understand, either. Regards Antoine.
