My hope with this was to see if there was a similarity that I could point out, but it is specific too what I have pointed out in the code. I don't get it at all, it makes no sense to me. I also tried returning simple values like just a string into the return and it ended up as None as well.

Why does this return None when it has a literal value???
Keep in mind that this function only does this when their are two itemsin the obj dictionary when their not in orderIt works when in order and when in the number of items is greater or lesser then 2WOuld put in return statement to save lines, but it returns NoneUnder the specific condition mentioned, the alteration ofVariables work just fine.
