you need a linter, bro

when integrated into the editor it'll highlight stupid mistakes as they're typed

I recommend Ruff for real time checks, and pylint if you need a comprehensive analysis.

It's also a solution...

As if that's a bad thing... it means you're not locked in with a tool you don't like and the language itself doesn't dictate your workflow.

There's very little benefit and a lot of potential problems in using a single tool for everything.

Yea and C++ is the same thing, you just need to enable all the warnings on clang-tidy
