Guido> What code would break if we loosened this restriction?
I don't know how much, but I do know I've relied on this behavior before.
(In fact, I've asked about it before.) I guess the counter question to
yours would be, "What would be gained by loosening this restriction"? If
the answer is, "not much", then I don't see why this is even an idle
thought.
