In the python grammar, an 'expression' is a 'starred_item' but a

starred_item ::= expression | "*" or_expr

conditional_expression ::= or_test ["if" or_test "else" expression]
'*a' is a 'starred_item' but not an 'expression'.
I don't know where you got that grammar from, but not GitHub
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Grammar/Grammar#L142
From the human readable docs
