That maybe, just MAYBE, the client really does want that new feature. And no, they really shouldn't have to <obscure workaround>.
ay caramba!

To me, spirituality is awe and reverence at the world around us. Feeling small and humble ant at peace with your place in the universe.
Religion is a social construct surrounding dogmatic rules of behavior.

I suspected lua. Lua is pretty cool!
It can easily be confused with javascript, especially when you have to deal with them both.
Except lua is actually nice under the hood! 😅
Looking up lua specific examples, you still have corner cases If your table is cyclical or recursive. Also you haven't covered metatable copying.
But I suspect you don't require these features today.
@shoofle
Looks conceptually right, but some implementation questions:
What language is this?
Does your language have any notion of types? Looking for [table] as a string is sketchy. What if your value is the literal string [table]?
If you have an array, is the "return other" going to return a copy of the array, or a reference?

Apologies,
I shouldn't have glossed over your specific grievances. I also don't know your experiences and perspective. The environment you live in or the people you are surrounded by.
In my experience, conspiracy theorists are threatening in a large number of ways and the majority of people I have discussed this with see that too.
I guess all I'm trying to say is youre definitely not alone in seeing this as a real threat. And there's strength in those numbers.
@eldang
Perhaps little to no explanation is needed.
After watching all these absurd conspiracies fester within the far right and culminate in calls to violence, I think many of us understand how that can be threatening.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Even I feel somewhat threatened.
The difference in how threatened one feels is likely proportional to their marginalization. It doesn't take much empathy to begin to extrapolate to women. Non-whites. The Jewish community.

Relatable!
My mum has a temper.
As a kid, if she was cleaning I learned to stay away or I'd get told I'm the worst sort of slob. Why aren't I doing this. And the vacuum would get slammed violently into every nook to underscore her frustration.
Now I have a partner who __loves__ cleaning. And every time she displays her "acts of service" love language, I'm stuck feeling guilty, with my hair on end thinking I've been awful letting it get this dirty. :/

This, plus de-facto first class vendor driver support from basically every hardware manufacturer.
For me, software parity is less important than hardware parity. But I understand that's different for everyone.
