Why is this thread being pursued in Debian Security?

This mailing list is for security announcements. All Debian users are
encouraged to subscribe, so that they know about the latest threats and
updates.

It is not reasonable to use this list as a forum for discussing a Python
string-comparison routine. Can you please take your discussion somewhere
else?

Thanks.
