Mark Dickinson added the comment: > There is also no reason to break currently working code
Agreed. To take one example, David Beazley's PyCon 2015 talk would have been broken by the suggested change! (See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCs5OvhV9S4, at around the 42:17 mark.) If there's any code change resulting from this issue, I also think it should be to make assignment to `()` legal. ---------- nosy: +mark.dickinson _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23275> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
