It sounds like your solution is macOS only, where as Python needs to be cross platform.

Further, I assume there are good reasons that it's implemented the way it is. Perhaps there was no alternative when it was initially developed? And we're constrained by backward compatibility to at least some extent.

I'm sure that we'd accept contributions that used a more modern approach, if they were cross platform and didn't break anything.

By the way, getting volunteers to pay attention to your issue isn't helped by using words like "pretty crazy" and "random noise".
