For example, in the linalg.solve problem, based on reading the documentation for <60 seconds I had two guesses for what would work, and from experimenting it looks like both work equally. If you don't want to take the time to understand the documentation or experiment to see what works, then just write the for loop.
For indexing problems, how about just don't use weird indexing techniques if you don't understand them? I have literally never needed to use a list of lists to index an array in my years of using numpy. And if you do need to use it for some reason, spend 1 minute to test out what happens. "What shape does B have?" is a question that can be answered with `print(B.shape)`. If the concern is about reading code written by other people, then context should make it clear what's happening, and if it's not clear then that's the fault of the person who wrote the code for not using sensible variable names/comments.
