This is more a signal that you are far from the first person asking about braces in Python, and what the general opinion from the language designers is about this. IMHO it is highly unlikely that any proposal about adding braces to Python would be accepted. Ronald — Twitter / micro.blog: @ronaldoussoren Blog: https://blog.ronaldoussoren.net/
