Interesting. I agree with the OP that it is confusing! Does this expansion really get invoked every time there is an expression of the form?? expr1 binary_op1 expr2 binary_op2 expr3 ... Seemingly, the answer is yes: >>> 3 in [3] in [[3],[4]] in [[[3],[4]],5] == [[[3],[2+2]],5] True How does this play with standard precedence rules?
