While we're on the subject, I've tried to add dicts a few times over the years
to get a new one but it doesn't work:
d3 = d1 + d2 # TypeError
Thinking a bit, set union is probably a better analogue, but it doesn't work
either:
d3 = d1 | d2 # TypeError
Where the last value of any duplicate keys should win.

Extending the original idea, IMHO it would make sense for the dict constructor
to create a new dictionary not only from several mappings, but mixing mappings
and iterables too.
Consider this example:
x = [(1, 'one')]
y = {2: 'two'}
Now: {**dict(x), **y}
Proposed: dict(x, y)
