This is a very well thought out response, that I mostly agree with. Couple of comments though: 1. Python does have namedtuples (and dataclasses). They are quite useful when moving data over modules, but they seem to be less preferred in local context. 2. In my experience, most developers do not check return types if they believe to be able to infer it from the name, therefore I prefer names that certainly do not convey such information to those which could be misleading.
