FWIW, we could make f-strings properly nest too... So this is not an argument for backticks.
An argument might be that single and double quotes currently do not nest and never have done, so having them start to nest but only in the context of f-strings could be confusing. Whereas backticks are currently unused, and they used to nest back when they were used, so giving them a new nesting usage will be unsurprising to those with long enough memories. -- Greg
