I've used Python for 23+ years now. I've had occasion where I'd use this methods maybe in the low-tens of times. I'd call the purpose rare at best. I'm not going to list other one-liners that I'd also not want, but are less rare. There are various, but none I'd advocate adding rather than writing when I need them.
