the proposed name binding syntax inherently conflicts with the
existing assignment statement lvalue syntax in two areas:
* dotted names (binds an attribute in assignment, looks up a
constraint value in a match case)
* underscore targets (binds in assignment, wildcard match without
binding in a match case)
The former syntactic conflict presents a bigger problem, though, as it
means that we'd be irrevocably committed to having two different
lvalue syntaxes for the rest of Python's future as a language.
