Hey everyone
Today I was learning about encapsulation in Python and honestly I got a bit surprised
In languages like Java we have proper private keywords but in Python it feels like nothing is truly private
Even with double underscores it just does name mangling and you can still access it if you really want
So I was wondering why Python is designed this way
Is it because Python follows a different philosophy or is there some deeper reason behind it
Also in real projects how do developers maintain proper encapsulation if everything can technically be accessed
Trying to understand how to think about this in a more practical and runable way
Would love to hear your thoughts 👍
