Oh I had a similar bug but with defaulted dicts. Default args are constructed once and reused. Not a problem for immutable args, but mutables like dicts (and sets I'd also assume) are all shared.

EDIT: whoops, didn't see you spoilered the answer, my bad! If it helps, i found my bug when dealing with cross-thread stuff, so that was a fun moment to bisect

That's understandable, primarily I would define it as being in active development that ensures it remains at least functional (for example, compatible with modern versions of their target platforms), since the main way I see projects failing is by lack of development for upkeep. One-and-done projects are possible, but change is the only constant, and factors beyond the project's control can make it non-functional
