So are you going to write a PEP explaining exactly how you propose to
implement deferred expressions and how they would be used?  And perhaps
provide a reference implementation?  Then we can see how it works, and
how it can be used to replace or improve PEP 671?  Say, next month?
I really don't want to be rude, but I can't think of anything more
appropriate to express my frustration/impatience (and I'm not the one
doing the work! I can only guess how Chris A feels) with this
foot-dragging, than the adage (possibly from poker): "Put up or shut
up".

No, I'm not going to do that, because as I've said repeatedly throughout this thread, I don't see late-bound defaults as a pressing problem. There is no urgency whatsoever. I do think some kind of deferred evaluation would be nice, but I'm not saying "we need to not do PEP 671 right away because we should instead do this other thing right away". We don't need to take any action on this matter at all. I would rather we do nothing for another 10 years than adopt the current proposal.
