Otherwise, unless I misunderstand integer unification, one would just have to strike the distinction between, say, %d and %u.

Couldn't that be done anyway? The distinction really only makes sense in C, where there's no way of knowing whether the value is signed or unsigned otherwise. In Python the value itself knows whether it's signed or not.
