STINNER Victor <vstin...@python.org> added the comment:

When, I even expect that some people use .strip() whereas their intent was to 
use .lstrip():

>>> "Python vs Monty Python".strip("Python")
' vs Monty '

Again, strip() is used with a string whereas the real intent was to use 
removesuffix() which didn't exist ;-)

A note should be added to lstrip(), strip() and rstrip() documentation to point 
to removeprefix() and/or removesuffix().
