This was discussed/litigated/holy wars fought over at extreme length, I
suggest you peruse the email archives searching for PEP 622 or 634 and also
this might be a helpful jumping off point:

Okay. What has changed since PEP 463 to justify writing a new PEP?

Hmmm. Didn't show up as a search result. Yet I feel like it's really to good to
have that feature. (Again, it's the PEP dictator's decision.) :-(

Hey everyone,
I meant to say, I agree with the two of you, actually. `_` as a variable
name is terrible, but it /can/ be used all the same ; on the other hand,
wildcards should not be legitimate variable names, to prevent
misunderstandings / accidents / bugs.
Had I taken part in the discussi

Yeah, that's it exactly.
I see these two features - `_` as a joker in `match` statements and
`_`as the last value produced by a shell - as incompatible, because you
have to account for interferences between them, or face unexpected
behaviors in code you run.
I expect people to code like I do

and vice-versa. But, if `_` is both a variable (shell) and a keyword
(`match`), that 's not the case. You have to work around the problem, e.g.
by reaffecting `_`.
But the discrepancy here is not the match statement, it's tha
Reply to Alexis Masson:
There's no way we can end up in an undefined state. Python just detects if _ is
there, it doesn't use it's value. If it is there it's a wildcard pattern.
