Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettin...@gmail.com> added the comment: FWIW, I'm -1 on making the change. Any memory savings would be microscopic for most Python programs. And anything that slows down float creation (even a teeny bit) is detrimental to all Python programs. We're better off not adding special case logic unless there is a clear benefit (there isn't).
