okie ....i agree with  your comment, if the case is simple we would 
prefer not to make it complex but if required there would be nor harm in
 using decorators with Arguments



Thanks,

Simplicity is one, using @decor() means you have at least three-level
nested functions, which means the code is likely to be very huge and
perhaps unnecessarily.

However, there is nothing wrong with using decorators with arguments;
except that if you have a simpler alternative, then why use the more
complex ones?
