[question] Why does SplashTextResponse inherits from TextResponse instead HtmlResponse?

[iAnanich]

Why does scrapy_splash.reponse.SplashTextResponse inherits from scrapy.http.reponse.text.TextResponse and not from scrapy.http.reponse.html.HtmlResponse?

I understand that they are identical, and HtmlResponse uses TextResponse without any change, but they mean different things and Scrapy uses isinstance check to distinguish them.

In my case, it causes problem because I have type check for HtmlResponse where I expect to get HTML page and use css method to extract data from it, but SplashTextResponse doesn't pass it.
