    I want to add that, like you, I’ve become a big fan of restricting the numbers of ways to do something.

    IMO, It’s more time wasted choosing, more time wasted reviewing, and makes it easier to overlook errors. I want more opinionated languages and frameworks.

      I reallt like the approach taken in Rust’s borrow checker, where good, safe, and sometimes overbearing design choices are enforced by default, but you can explicitly declare exemptions. Makes identifying potential problem code blocks easy too.
