Careful.  "import this" says:

  "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it."

Note the use of "obvious".  It's about the language getting out of the 
way so you can focus on your real problem, not restricting what you can 
do with it.

(I mean, seriously, if you find your job so mind-numbingly boring that 
you need many ways to code trivial problems just to get some variation, 
maybe it's time to look for a better position?)
