I don’t understand all the issues and it’s too late for me to read all the thread, but I hope these comments are helpful:

- If our goal is to help naïve users, then one or two new options wouldn’t help (people want to run “python path/to/thing.py” and want it to Just Work™)

- Getting a very helpful error message is second-best to Just Working™

- This probably needs a wider audience, python-ideas or python-dev, and maybe a PEP to explain all the issues and all the considered solutions.
