also None is another annoying quirk
How is None a quirk?
The way it's written. Most programming languages call it null
That's pretty low bar for calling something a "quirk". The whole ML family, so OCaml, SML, Haskell, F# and perhaps a the new distant relative Rust call it also it
None
.And it's not even the same thing:
null
means pointer to nothing, whileNone
means no value.
