Sure, or we could just use the id of ContextVar.
In the end, when we want to introspect the EC while debugging, we
would see something like this:
{
ContextVar(name='518CDD4F-D676-408F-B968-E144F792D055'): 42,
ContextVar(name='decimal_context'): DecimalContext(precision=2),
ContextVar(name='7A44D3BE-F7A1-40B7-BE51-7DFFA7E0E02F'): 'spam'
}
That's why I think it's easier to force users always specify the name:
my_var = sys.new_context_var('my_var')
This is similar to namedtuples, and nobody really complains about them.
