The socket documentation (https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket-families) does not list '' as a way to bind to all interfaces for the AF_INET/AF_INET6 address family. This is answered on SO here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/8034146 but it took me a while to find it. Ideally if this was mentioned in the docs, that would be great.
