New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <[email protected]>:
It is common to use quotes around %s. If the formatted argument is a string
this will produce a string in qoutes, that look as a string literal in Python
and other programming languages or just as a quoted string in English. But if
quotes surround %r this looks like error. If the argument is a string this will
lead to doubling qoutes. If its repr is in the form <...>, the angular
parenthesis serve a role of qoutes, and additional qoutes are not needed.
PR 4582 removes qoutes around %r and {!r} in format strings.
