I’m not objecting to what you say. The latter part of my comment is simply considering cases where you only want to replace a part of the function (the author have some examples on the project page), where a decorator wouldn’t be flexible enough to support. Of course you can also argue those can be easily rewritten to be function scoped, but that is a design tradeoff you make that author did not (or didn’t want to).
