I recall discussions about this quite a few years ago, and the consensus was to be careful what you wish for. Too many typos would then mysteriously become variables. So (even though I certainly think it is a very useful facility in many case) the potential for confusion was pretty great. I think a nice use case of it is at the top of a worksheet prepared by an instructor who is not a 100% novice.
By the way, there was a similar method (perhaps the same one) that allowed methods to be functions, e.g. you could do foo(x) instead of x.foo() for simplicity. Anyway, certainly it should (in principle) be *implemented* for any Sage interface, including Jupyter. I just don't know about it becoming the default. - kcrisman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
