Answering questions:
1) If this feature existed in Python 3.11 exactly as described, would you use it? I would definitely use it. 2) Independently: Is the syntactic distinction between "=" and "=>" a cognitive burden? No, it isn't much of a cognitive burden. 3) If "yes" to question 1, would you use it for any/all of (a) mutable defaults, (b) referencing things that might have changed, (c) referencing other arguments, (d) something else? Probably all options other than (d). 5) Do you know how to compile CPython from source, and would you be willing to try this out? Please? :) Yes I do know how to, and I'm gonna try it out soon enough. I'll reply to this comment once I've done so.
