Be aware that:
035 == 29
True
Yup. Octal variation of 29. But that wasn't my point.
Yes, but worse yet:
py> 035 is 29 True
So 035 and 29 refer to exactly the same object. They're just syntactic variants. So how's Python to know which syntactic variant you want the index taken from? AFAIK that information is not stored in a Python int or you wouldn't get results like:
py> 035 29
