> Study up on context managers, decorators, and meta-classes, which will be vital to creating DSLs. However, you don't really need to use these features to build DSLs.

Make your mind up. Either they're vital or they're not. You can't have both.

No. I won't make my mind up. I'm not providing a recipe for DSLs in Python. I'm simply stating ingredients and saying "now go create."

I think he/she was more criticizing that you effectively said "X, Y and Z are vital" and then "But X, Y and Z are not vital."

If you'd said "useful" instead of "vital" it'd have been fine logically, but "vital" implies necessity.

Yeah. I ended up editing the original post when I realized it later.
