i feel like something as easy as multiple loggers should just be as you say, a simple lambda, or an interface with a single function `log(string)`, then you don't need all those annoying if statements..
Yes, there are tool-assisting type hint systems. But they're not part of the runtime. At runtime, if it quacks like a duck, it's a duck, and it matters not one bit what brand the duck is or how much of its innards match what you think ducks have inside them.
Rejection Notice
I’m rejecting this PEP. It’s been five years now. While at some point I expect that Python will have interfaces, it would be naive to expect it to resemble the syntax in this PEP. Also, PEP 246 is being rejected in favor of something completely different; interfaces won’t play a role in adaptation or whatever will replace it. GvR.
hmm, maybe someone should dust this off and give it another try...
