Thanks for that!
I would have preferred a slightly louder warning with respect to singleton
tuples given that:
1. Singleton tuple syntax is not consistent with other-length tuples
2. This inconsistency is somewhat alleviated by the fact that in a classic
format ('%') expression, the second argument can be a single element when the
format string has only one %-spec -- so one inconsistency to correct another
3. conn.execute's parameters, apparently very analogous to the '%'
-- even more so given the standard sql-injection advisory -- is not consistent
with 2 above
Still the suggested doc-fix is much better than the current almost
undocumented situation -- so thanks again!
