At first I thought it might be harmless, but nothing I really care
about. After the discussion, I think the PEP would be actively harmful
to future Python features.
I'm not sure I'm -100, but still a hard -1, maybe -10.
I agree it seems totally absurd to add a type of deferred expression
but restrict it to only work inside function definitions. That doesn't
make any sense. If we have a way to create deferred expressions we
should try to make them more generally usable.
