I love shitting on Python, but I feel like all those problems are present in libraries for other languages as well. There's a tonne of that crap for JS/TS.

Similarly, I find a fair number of Rust crates (that I want to use) have virtually no doc or inline examples, and use weird metaprogramming that I can't wrap my head around.

Is it really a true rust crate if it doesn't contain at least one inscrutable macro?

It’s one of the macro_rules!

Not even one full day after posting this and here I am debugging one of my own inscrutable macros for a version upgrade lmao.
