When experimenting, I routinely write throwaway classes and functions like
def f(*args, **kw):
print(f"In f, {args=} {kw=}")
I don't see why writing
class A:
def __getitem__(self, *args, **kw):
print(f"Getting {args=}, {kw=}")
would be any more onerous. A stdlib class that used the new syntax
should stand on its own merits, not as "something people can use to
experiment with".
