Do you yearn for actual refactoring tools - which do exist?
Renaming tools of IDE do not work in 100% of the cases. For example, if you have _variable in an eval string, it's not replaced.
Another reason not to use eval.
I completely agree, but the world is not perfect. Another example is the use of the _variable in a f-string.
f-strings are code, and should be treated as code by any decent refactoring tool.
Ok, but the point is that renaming a variable is always a problem. I check the result of renaming twice even when I use Java with Eclipse. It seems to me that modern languages and programming strategies tend to make refactoring as easy as possible.
Language features shouldn't be dictated by poor tools, nor by poor codebases.
