Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: We discussed this recently on #python-dev, and I don't think that it's worth to add indexing to match object. It will be confused that len(match) != len(match.groups()). I don't know any use case for indexing, it doesn't add anything new except yet one way to access a group. This feature not only increases maintaining complexity, but it also increases a number of things which should learn and remember Python programmer.
