But the question is, why doesn't the list type share all its non-modifying methods with the tuple type? All the previous arguments about "homogenous" and "heterogenous" in this thread sound bogus to me. Python is first and foremost a practical language; what lists and tuples are supposedly "for" strikes me as being irrelevant.
