Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com> added the comment:

Syntax of format strings cannot be the same as in f-strings. {0} means the 
first positional argument in format string an integer literal 0 in f-string. 
{a[x]} means the value of literal string key "x" of keyword argument a in 
format string, and indexing variable a with variable index/key x in f-string. 
Such things as {if}, {+.name} or {0[-]} are not even valid in f-strings.

Since we cannot get rid of all differences between format strings and 
f-strings, I do not think that this one change is worth. It will only make 
differences more complex. Not mentioning that it is a compatibility breaking 
change, and can break user code.
