Reiterating the Python 3.9 suggestion, what about:

  salt2 = salt.cutsuffix(('==', '='))

 

But if the API was there, I agree this would work, not sure what David is saying about needing to call twice. On the other hand, this example demonstrates well how a tuple is potentially confusing. What happens if you call `'abc=='.removesuffix(('=', '=='))`?
