Hold on, it took f'' strings a while to grow on you, give it a few minutes. ;)
I'd like Python to be competitive with other (shell) scripting languages, and
appeals to purity stand in the way of that. Sometimes practical is just darn
useful.
We've already acquiesced to arbitrary expressions, so this is a small further
step, icing on the cake, no? I believe Guido mentioned something about
"half-measures" in one of his messages.
