A “frozen” dictionary for Python

Can someone ELI5 the core difference between this and named tuples, for someone who is not deep into Python? ChatGPT's answer boiled down to: unordered (this) vs ordered (NTs), "arbitrary keys, decided at runtime" vs "fixed set of fields decided at definition time" (can't an NT's keys also be interpolated from runtime values?), and a different API (`.keys()`, `.items()`), etc (I'm just giving this as context btw, no idea if there's inaccuracies in these).

So could this also have been approached from the other side, as in making unordered NamedTuples with support for the Mapping API? The line between dictionaries and named tuples and structs (across various languages) has always seemed a bit blurry to me, so I'm trying to get a better picture of it all through this.

I think you could have asked this same comment w/o mentioning ChatGPT and you wouldn't have been downvoted to oblivion in 3 minutes

I don't see anything wrong with your asking to understand

This place hates ChatGPT and AI. Lol.

Edit: Of course, I get down voted as I predicted I would. Lol.

This place hates laziness and imprecision. Using ChatGPT for editing or inspiration is okay as long as you personally review the results for accuracy and completeness, at which point people care about it as much as you announcing that you used a spell checker.

Pasting chat GPT responses is against the site rules.

always has been even before GPT
