In looking at this and some other stuff, I thought about this code: x = 1, How about requiring parens around (1,)? [snip] This would apply to x, = 1 as well (ie, both LHS and RHS).
FWLIW, I use the latter all the time and would greatly miss it. I can't remember the last time I had a bug from it, though I can certainly believe that they happen.
I avoid the (x,) thing like the plague -- too much punctuation for
me -- but if the single comma form goes away, I guess I could still be
happy with [x] for unpacking.
