But I do write this:

def wrapper(func, somevalue): valueIwant = process(somevalue) def wrapped(*args, **kwds): if valueIwant == 42: ...

But this pattern is more rare than comparing local variables. That's the point I'm trying to use. Besides, to make it an assignment expression under my proposal you would need to use parens. Which makes it even less likely that you confuse '=' and '=='.
