I like the simplicity but there are some social problems with this. Let's say that I work on a team which has codebases with classes/dataclasses and I add a new codebase that doesn't use them, or one that doesn't _underscore just about everything - the first thing that will come up in the code review is questions about why I'm doing things differently, and I wouldn't have a good reason apart from the fact that I find it more aesthetically pleasing.

I agree on that it is a good idea to use patterns that the teams have agreed on.

Would you do the same if you were about to make changes in a code base with only dictionaries and lists in it? :)
