Imagine someone that uses zip() in code that works for a while, and then

If it’s a flag, they look at the zip docstring, and find the flag, and
their problem is solved.
Why would they look at the docs for zip? The bug wasn't
caused by incorrect use of zip. And using the flag isn't
going to fix it.
