Yes, but PEPs are not just about complexity, but also impact on users. And
"impact" covers backwards-compatibility which includes performance
regressions (i.e. making Python slower means it may no longer be a viable
for someone with specific performance requirements). So with the initial 4%
performance regression it made sense to write a PEP.
