On the 3360 for loops of the stdlib (*), I only found 2 loops which would benefit of assignment expressions.
It's not easy to find loops which: - build a list, - are simple enough to be expressed as list comprehension, - use a condition (if), - use an expression different than just a variable name as the list value (value appended to the list).
Are you implying that the above conditions are essential for assignment expressions to be useful, or that this defines one particular way in which they can be of value? Your opening implies the former, but I think the latter is more accurate here.
