Constant f-strings (those without substitutions) as doc strings used to
work, since the compiler turns them into normal strings.
I can't find exactly where it was removed, but there was definitely
discussion about it. See https://bugs.python.org/issue28739 for at least
part of the discussion.

Hello,
Currently, a f-string is not recognized as a docstring:
class C: f"foo"
C.__doc__
This means you need to use a (admittedly easy) workaround:
class C: __doc__ = f"foo"
C.__doc__
'foo'
Shouldn't the former be allowed for convenience?

Antoine.
