I personally think F-strings should not be usable as docstrings. If you
want a dynamically calculated docstring you should assign it dynamically,
not smuggle it in using a string-like expression. We don't allow "blah {x}
blah".format(x=1) as a docstring either, not "foo %s bar" % x.

Constant f-strings (those without substitutions) as doc strings used to
work, since the compiler turns them into normal strings.
I can't find exactly where it was removed, but there was definitely
discussion about it. See https://bugs.python.org/issue28739 for at least
part of the discussion.
