Believe me, I understand the issues. It is true, though that the single-element tuple syntax is often a surprise to people, and often well into their Python learning experience. We often repeat, "it isn't parens that make a tuple, but a comma." Then why when displaying a tuple does Python insist on using parens around it?
1, 2, 3
(1, 2, 3)
I would say: - because it's easier to read (subjectively so, I guess) - because it's easier to copy/paste into an expression without running into precedence problems
