OK, if that's your view then fine. I agree the example was made up, although I dispute "utterly artificial", as it reflects a genuine concern I have, it's just not one that I can find or construct a non-artificial example for right now. But yes, the example wasn't good. Let's keep it simple. I'm -1 on the request, I don't think expandvars should be added to pathlib. I think os.path isn't a very good place for it currently, but it's what we have. I'm not massively enthusiastic about it being in shlex, but I can't think of a better place for it. So I'm inclined to stick with the status quo, or if it's *really* worth doing anything, move it to shlex.
