Only contains expressions are translated:
"if x in [1,2,3]"
currently turns into:
"if x in (1,2,3)"

"if x in Seachset([1,2,3])"
ISTM that whenever I use a constant in-list like that, it's almost always with just a few (<4) items, so it doesn't seem worth the extra effort (especially disrupting the marshal module) just to squeeze out those extra two comparisons and replace them with a hashing operation.
