I'm kinda theoretically in favour of expressions, but only the sort that logically "feel" like constants. Unary minus and the addition of real and imaginary parts are already supported, so what's still of value? IMO exponentiation of 2 is usually better spelled in hex (instead of 2**10, use 0x400, unless there's good reason), and since you can have underscores to break up an integer, that handles powers of 10 as well. What notations would you want to use?
