This is why I'm not posting this article to my team's slack. There's some good stuff in the article, but my team also has some well-meaning over-optimizers that will see this and start throwing in orjson even though json (de)serialization is an insignificant impact to our execution time, or loguru even though our code base has stupidly simple logging requirements, and they'll do it because they'll see this article stating authoritatively that those are the correct choices without considering the value of simplicity, the longevity of standard libraries, or whether the problems those libraries are trying to solve actually apply to us. And they'll do that because the author of this article failed to address or even acknowledge ANY of those concerns.



> using loguru when you could be using structlog

Oof. Yikes. Outdated much? I kid, but it's way too easy to be dogmatic about stuff like libs.
