If Python had done these, it wouldn't be Python ;)

There are many, many programming language design decisions which have 
good arguments on each side (and some which seem obviously correct may 
involve hidden costs which aren't appreciated until after it is too late 
to change them). That's one of the major reasons why there are so many 
different programming languages out there.

Cheers,
Nick.
