Yes, they're easy to get  keys = [x for x in d], or  vals = [d[x] for x in d]

It's just that Python usually does what I expect and presents me with
something useful. All I can do is look at the d.keys or d.values
result. But then, I could look at a usable list or tuple just as
easily, so I'm surprised they made it kind of useless.
