What type of developer chooses UX and performance over security? So reckless.

I removed the locks from all the doors, now entering/exiting is 87% faster! After removing all the safety equipment, our vehicles have significantly improved in mileage, acceleration and top speed!

requests should be in the Python standard library. Hard choices need to be made.

I'm pretty sure it's really one HTTP library: urllib.request is built on top of http.client. But the very Java-inspired API for the former is awful.

> Unless you are Python, where the standard library includes multiple HTTP libraries and everyone installs the requests package anyways.

The amount of time defining same data structures over and over again vs `pip install requests` with well defined data structures.

    >  Few languages have good models for evolving their standard library

Can you name some examples?
