What is difference between self.pool['res.partner'] and self.pool.get('res.partner')

What is main difference between following :

self.pool['res.partner'].browse(cr, uid, partner_id, context=context)

and

self.pool.get('res.partner').browse(cr, uid, partner_id, context)

As per my understanding both returns single record of type res.partner if partner_id e.g. 1

Then why it is used like this.

if self.pool is a dictionary (I hope :) ) then self.pool['res.partner'] will raise an exception (KeyError) if the 'res.partner' is not present in that dictionary.

self.pool.get('res.partner') in the same case will return default value (which is None).

If you want to specify a different default value, you can do it like that: self.pool.get('res.partner',some_def_value).
