The opinions mentioned in the thread, without throwing my opinion behind any of them were: * pathlib should be improved (specifically by making it inherit from str) * the stdlib should be made to deal with pathlib without changing pathlib * pathlib is redundant to third party modules which work better * the continued existence of pathlib was briefly discussed You can insert the never-ending arguments for and against each of those points in your head - none of them were particularly convincing (in that i don't think anyone changed their position.) the split between utility scripting and application development was not really discussed.
