Iterating over weak key dictionaries might not be the most common task but I know some situations where this is necessary. Unfortunately I can't see a way to achieve that in Python 3. i = list(d.keys()) Surely i = list(d) is a more reasonable way to do this. I seldom find a reason to use .keys

Definitely. I was being lazy in my use of list(d.keys()) ;)
