I just have one more to add. You ask "Is 'from datetime import datetime' DRY?" Well, yes it is. The first 'datetime' is the name of the module, the second is a datetime within that module. You haven't repeated yourself, because you've referred to two different things. It's a slightly odd naming convention that's been chose, but hardly a con of the language as a whole.
