print (1, 2, 3) 1 2 3
The only real advantage of print being a keyword (exec too, which had tons of benefits such adding stuff to local scope) was the fact of it actually being a keyword and not a gimmick to call functions without parentheses. So this is the worst of 2 worlds. Not a keyword, so no special powers or special syntax like the trailing comma and all the confusion brought to it like you pointed out, such as unable to print tuples without a trailing comma. Which is one of the reasons why `%` formatting is so awful... I'm -1 on this
