Yes, this does seem to be a lot of people's problem. My point is we get to that position one step at a time, so maybe we should be examining the first steps in that chain and re-evaluating whether they were in fact the right ones, given where we end up. I accept the PEP's general point that name patterns will be common, but I don't think something like "case int as x:" is hard to write and it brings in the idea that we are talking about types right at the start.
