If it's easy then why did you fail twice at even making a valid python expression?
When we talk about the oppressive nature of Python culture—how the "there is only one way to do it" culture leaks out of the place where it's applicable and starts to be focused on other communities that have different requirements—we think of examples like this. "Your code in a language I don't now or use is wrong."
Over focusing on how the example code polls the environment is the least interesting thing you could hyperfocus on. What's more, I think it's a bit more normal to use something like optparse-applicative, which leads to inevitable complaints about using infix operators that every Haskell novice knows but that armchair Haskell programmers hem and haw about asking, "is this too many operators?"
