 @6730d36f I used to really advocate against it, but at this point I am resigned to just being a weirdo on this point. It’s fine, the abstractions work okay once you’ve gotten used to them, but I will probably not choose it voluntarily unless I specifically know that colleagues in this context specifically want to use it 
 @0a734d30 @6730d36f I’m a weirdo with you @0a734d30. I 110% agree about the magic action at a distance and the name matching. But what alternative do you use? 
 @4c2fcda1 @6730d36f Usually, Twisted's `trial` test runner, but this advice may not generalize :)

(Seriously though come maintain trial with me we could make it so much better)
