What is or isn't "pythonic" is largely determined by the community not the language. Nothing is stopping the Python community from monkey patching everything like the Ruby community does. The f-string changes arrived because there was a need to formalize the syntax, so other Python parsers, for CPython to move off having a special sub-parser just for f-strings, and to be able decide whether weird edge cases were bugs or features. Once formalized it was decided not to put arbitrary limits on it just because people can write badly formatted code, people are can already do that and it's up to the Python community to choose what is or isn't "Pythonic". FYI, one of the things I'm really looking forward to is being able to write: f"Rows: {'\n'.join(rows)}\n Done!" Which in Python 3.11 is illegal syntax.
