I think the ".d = 1" statement feels like a bug waiting to happen. It's very easy to miss a dot.
I suppose that's a valid concern, especially regarding assignments, because the code typically would still run. But in the beginning of the line, it is usually quite easy to see if there's a dot or not, assuming a fixed-width font and proper indenting. It may be easy to see if there's a dot or not, but it may not be easy to tell whether there /should/ be a dot when there isn't.
e.g. <snip> .configuration = {'yes': 'no'} vs <snip> configuration = {'yes': 'no'} When you might have later in the code something that assigns to a variable with the same name, and/or operates on that variable I think it'd become more difficult to determine. Thanks, S
