Not a good attitude to have if one is programming in a highly shared
environment. Considering the primary machine I program on is a utility box in
a large ISP that has dozens of processes running at once I prefer to be a
little more conservative with what I do in regards to memory. As it stands I
had to oversee a process that took 300Mb at a pop.

Nope, I'm pointing out that there are other portions of the language which
are far more confusing than while 1: and while 1: is hardly worth the time to
argue about except for those who are just looking for something to argue about
in their spare time.
