I’m trying to write a simple wrapper around some of tkinter, and have bogged down in the concept of the master. How important is it to set the right master?

I’m aware of the following question: Tkinter Widgets without Parent Master , but the accepted answer doesn’t really answer the question, which was “What are the consequences when omitting the parent master of a widget?”. It simply says that it will default to the root widget, without discussing whether it’s a bad thing.

Does it really make any practical difference if I create a widget without a master?
