Funny comic about python
This about sums up my experience:
Absurd nitpick: I’m not a fan of modules that execute code on import. I would prefer that importing antigravity doesn’t automatically do anything, and if I want to use antigravity, then I have to call a function or something like that.

Actually I wouldn’t call it nitpicking: I consider modules that execute that kind of code upon import broken.
