well is func((1,2,3)) the same as func(1,2,3)? no.
so why should container[1, 2, 3] be the same as container[(1,2,3)]?
you say it's a feature. is it intentionally *ambiguous*?
what you'd want in that case is
t = (1, 2, 3)
container[*t]
or something like that.
i guess it's a dead subject, but i wanted to have that clarified.
