Making Ellipsis a keyword will break ast.Ellipsis (and maybe some third-party libraries).
I realized that after my initial post which is why I subsequently suggested that its repr should perhaps be "Ellipsis (...)".
It does not help. If Ellipsis is a keyword, it is not possible to have ast.Ellipsis. Not mentioned that it would be pretty confusing by itself -- why you need to write Ellipsis(), but not None() or True()?
