The average word length in English is five characters. That means that
in a list of typical English words, more than a third of the expression
is made up of the quotes and commas. In the example you give, there are
twelve characters in the words themselves and eight characters worth of
boilerplate surrounding them (quotes and commas, not including the
spaces or brackets).

This would be a good argument if Python be a write-only language.
