You pegged it when you said the behavior is inherited from C. Technically this isn't a bug in Python, since the socket module is a set of (mostly) thin wrappers around the C.
Enhancing CPython to do the check is not a bad suggestion, especially since it seems that other languages and implementations do so. We won't fix this in a maintenance release, though, since it would pointlessly break working code (even if that code is technically buggy). |
