On the 3360 for loops of the stdlib (*), I only found 2 loops which
would benefit of assignment expressions.

It's not easy to find loops which:
- build a list,
- are simple enough to be expressed as list comprehension,
- use a condition (if),
- use an expression different than just a variable name as the list
value (value appended to the list).
