New submission from David Hariri <david.hariri at gmail.com>:
In some languages, one may declare a dictionary's key and its value like so:
```
foo = "bar"
my_dict = { foo }
>> { "foo" : "bar" }
```
In Python, one must instead write:
```
foo = "bar"
my_dict = {
"foo": foo
}
>> { "foo" : "bar" }
```
I humbly suggest this change as a QoL improvement for those who work with dictionaries all day.
