So your use case is the rationale from a PEP written because Barry “can’t 
resist” and rejected as a joke in record time, for which a better solution was 
already added (use 0 for the environment variable) 3 years ago.

And you ended your email with this code snippet:

… which demonstrates that even if you had a real need for a 
PYTHON_BREAKPOINT=noop, your proposal wouldn’t have helped anyway. There is 
actually a way you could pass it, but if you don’t know that way, and felt the 
need to show us that you don’t know it, that can’t be your use case. And even 
after you figure it out, it would hardly be any more obvious to other people 
who need a noop function where to go digging for it than it was for you.
