Ricky has written the opposite : "As far as I know, none of these tools know

That's convenient, because my suggestion is to add a magic attribute into the
Python specifications ;) It would be a `type` attribute, like `__mro__` or
others.

The example i've given is a good example where find and replace isn't a great
option.
In fact, you don't want to use find and replace to change a function parameter,
because

This help me to understand your point of view.
But if I consider your proposition, it's evident that a simple comment `#

Indeed, it sounds like the `nameof` operator; I had not heard of this
suggestion before your message.
However, there is

A typical example are SQLAlchemy

You are right, I did not envisage the case where you could have name mangling
between submodule and variable inside package __init__.py, which could lead to
different behavior. So my statement is erroneous and this thread is no longer

Thank you
There is no other advantage than respect of the Zen of Python (and I don't know
how much it counts). Maybe it can simplify interpreter code, but I don't know
about it and I doubt it.
With that, it could help newcomers to Python to choose between the two
syntaxes. (And I've already experienced
