Two thoughts:

* This is ridiculous. Why would you do this? Which made think of this quote: "Which is ridiculous and unnecessary but when has that ever stopped programmers?" from one of my favorite Tom Scott videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gocwRvLhDf8

* How to Write Unmaintainable Code: https://github.com/Droogans/unmaintainable-code

On one hand, funny. On the other, potentially useful for either teaching yourself or learning to read other people's code. Intentionally botching or skewing code and teaching yourself to deal with it/fix it.

Would use if I was even halfway decent at coding

Never ask a nerd "why?", just nod your head and back away slowly.

Rewrite this function into latin-py, a python dialect based on latin, with all identifiers (even append) and keywords translated to proper latin. Add comments in proper latin. Add typeannotations (translated into latin) and docstring in proper latin.

    ```latin-py
    """Haec definitio vicini elementos in arr in spatio n a puncto (x, y) repperit."""
    definio vicini(arra: lista, x: numerus, y: numerus, n: numerus) -> lista:
        """Resultatus in quem vicini elementi addentur."""
        resultato: lista = []
        # Maximum quod x possit esse.
        riga_maximus: numerus = max(0, x-n)
        # Minimum quod x possit esse.
        riga_minimum: numerus = min(longitudo(arra)-1, x+n)
        # Maximum quod y possit esse.
        colonna_maximus: numerus = max(0, y-n)
        # Minimum quod y possit esse.
        colonna_minimum: numerus = min(longitudo(arra[0])-1, y+n-1)
        # Itero per intervallum rigarum
        pro i in intervallum(riga_maximus, riga_minimum+1):
            # Itero per intervallum columnarum
            pro j in intervallum(colonna_maximus, colonna_minimum):
                # Addo elementum ad resultatum.
                resultato.adde((i, j))
        # Redire ad resultatum.
        redire resultato
    ```

I'm a bit disappointed that the integers are not latin numerals, though I'm sure someone considered it for a moment before realizing what a horrible idea it would be.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Bugs-as-a-Service (BAAS)

"Because, you see, bugs are a way of connecting people to the real world. Reminding them that, at the end of the day, it is just a game." — Matt Jablonsky, Head of Bug Creation Department Quote from an Aprils Fools video for The Witcher 3.
