So. Am I misunderstanding here, or are you suggesting that this
particular PEP doesn't help you much, but if it's accepted, it
represents "the thin end of the wedge" for a series of subsequent PEPs
suggesting fixes for a number of other "extremely annoying things"...?

I'm sure that's not what you meant, but it's certainly what it sounded
like to me!
