Steven D'Aprano <steve+pyt...@pearwood.info> added the comment:
Perhaps it would help if we spelled out the behaviour more explicitly?
str.startswith(prefix[, start=0[, end=len(string)]])
Return True if the slice of string between start (defaults to the beginning
of the string) and end (defaults to the end of the string) starts with the
prefix, otherwise return False. prefix can also be a tuple of prefixes to look
for.
(To be frank, I don't think we need to do this, I think the docs are fine
as-is, but if others disagree perhaps this is an improvment.)
