It's a perfectly accurate statement. If a tuple is homogeneous, it's only because all of its slots happen to be for objects of the same type (e.g. a row of a database table all of whose columns are integers, or the arguments of a function which takes 3 integers as input). In contrast, homogeneous lists are the norm (other than mixing None with non-None values). When was the last time you needed a heterogeneous list?
