Proposed alternatives
=====================

Keeping with the good practice of referencing sketches from Monty
Python's
Flying Circus, this PEP proposes to adopt the fruits mentioned in the
`"Self-Defence Against Fresh Fruit" sketch`_:

* banana (68 times in standard library)

Sorry, I'm afraid that "banana" is not an acceptable alternative here. It's well known that botanically, bananas are a type of fish. Please see the study at https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/6870748 for more information on this.
