I suppose that does follow from treating _ specially by not binding to it at all; I just hadn't thought through it. (I think my mental model had it wiping out the previous binding even if the "new" one wasn't available.) So I would prefer that this be stated explicitly in the PEP. (And maybe it is by now; the last draft I read was a few versions ago.)
