"We" are not Erlang, Smalltalk, OCaml or Haskell either, sadly.

IIRC, the default return value of a Smalltalk method is
self, not the last thing evaluated.
Methods yes (and that's one of the few Smalltalk design "features" I consider truly dumb, considering it has message cascading), but I was referring to blocks rather than methods and the return value of blocks is the last evaluated expression.

(And no, that's not going to happen in Python either --
the BDFL has rejected similar suggestions on previous
occasions.)
I know.
