"Line" is a red herring, I think. Nobody *really* cares about lines.
People do. There are only a handful of them in the screen. And the eyes catch even less in a single glance.
But on the contrary, trying to compress control flow in a single line breaks the visual structure expectation for Python code (in which most control flow is introduced by a colon and a linefeed). Regards Antoine.
