I fail to see how it is is greader readability or understanding when the
current method is both. It may not be the /common/ way people expect it to be
seen. However, people expect ; { and } quite often as well. Thankfully
Python is devoid of those cumbersome constructs. It should remain free of the
difficult to read (and overloaded) for statement as well.
