I remembered after posting that I sent this to python-ideas. Here is the first message in the thread: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2007-December/001260.html In this thread, someone claims that this issue was discussed when genexps were first added to the language, but doesn't remember the rationale for taking this decision.
