Certainly, but there is no danger of confusion them for
multiplication in context, whereas:
split_comma = partial(str.split, ..., ',')
to me looks like "make ',' the last argument" rather than "make ','
the second argument".
Yes, I agree. I mistakenly thought that that was the proposal under
discussion (that partial(f, ..., 2) == right_curry(f, 2))
