I'd go further than "variable names", and happily include attribute
access, subscripting (item access), etc, including a couple of levels
of same:
def __repr__(self):
return f"{self.__class__.__name__}(foo={self.foo!r}, spam={self.spam!r})"
But yes, I wouldn't put arbitrarily complex expressions into
f-strings. Whether PEP 8 needs to explicitly say so or not, I would
agree with you that it's a bad idea.
