[Python-ideas] SyntaxError says: "can't use starred expression here", but its not the same "starred expression" defined in the Language Reference.

The error mentioned in the title is this.

*() File "<stdin>", line 1 SyntaxError: can't use starred expression here

According to the Language Reference https://docs.python.org/3/reference/expressions.html#expression-lists it's not really a starred expression. In the context of defining the notion of starred expressiont, it looks like it's called a starred item. I think the message is confusing and should be fixed. I don't know if "starred item" is the right name to be used there, but it's at least documented (in the Reference). Best regards, Takuo
