The zen of Python should be the zen of all languages.

Unfortunately in practice you see snowflake implementations left and right in python.

It’s still unclear to me if python is too expressive for its own good, or if it’s so widely used, that it’s impossible to avoid nonsense

    I assume like 70% of Python developers do not even know the Zen of Python, let alone PEP-8. It's likely the size.

Yes, it should be. Sadly it's not even unambiguously the zen of Python these days.
