Basically the whole bottom quarter of the PEP!

The examples would make more sense if the "before" picture was using modern syntax fully. The alternative to c = a + b isn't the old c = {} c.update(a) c.update(b) but in fact: c = {**a, **b} I agree that the proposed + overload is nicer to read but the PEP isn't being fair to the current syntax imo. / Anders
