Hi Mike, Thanks for your great content. I love them.
Suggestion for a new tutorial series: building Blender as the "bpy" Python module and then using it in a Python script to import/modify mesh/change uv/...

- Note that there are two ways of using Blender in script: (1) passing a python script to Blender app as an argument, (2) Running a stand-alone Python scripts which solely import bpy to use Blender functionalities. I'm more into the latter.
