If you agree, I will modify the PEP. If Antoine disagree, I will fork the PEP 460 ;-)
Please fork it.
b'x=%s' % 10 is well defined, it's pure bytes.
It is well-defined? Then please explain me what the general case of b'%s' % x is supposed to call:
- does it call x.bytes? int.bytes doesn't exist
- does it call bytes(x)? bytes(10) gives b'\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00'
- does it call x.str? you've reintroduced the Python 2 behaviour of conflating bytes and unicode
Regards
Antoine.
