All these are new to me - but most quizzical is the default mutable object. I had to parse that in my head several times before I could quite grasp its implications.
It's as if
defthing(a=[]):a.append("nope")
is processed in-interpreter as
define a = <an array>
assign a to address <$A>
define thing using <$A>
So some sort of pre-processing of assignments ...
Which is essentially what you explained but I just really needed to express it in my own broken break-down....
I have never tried to use such a construct, but I am pretty sure I have seen it in some peoples' code at work so I will endeavour to weed that out.....!
And the disaster that's blessing in disguise is to use this for logging within a function. Capture some kind of information everytime a function is called.
There are sure some more interesting ways to log our findings or errors, like using decorator, singleton object or mutable objects in functions and simply using conditionals.

Glad you found it interesting 😊
