[issue17331] namedtuple raises a SyntaxError instead of ValueError on invalid identifier

[Florent Xicluna]

Florent Xicluna added the comment:

This is consistent:

>>> '¹'.isnumeric(), '¹'.isdigit(), '¹'.isdecimal()
(True, True, False)

>>> unicodedata.numeric('¹')
1.0
>>> unicodedata.digit('¹')
1
>>> unicodedata.decimal('¹')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: not a decimal
>>> 

Changing the title to focus on the issue with collections.namedtuple.
