Stylistic choice; I can appreciate your sentiment, but remember that this isn't exactly a function definition. It's a form of 'delayed expression.' Also, <... with ...> is nearly identical (identical if you replace 'with' with 'for') to existing list and generator comprehensions, so we'd get to stretch that idiom. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
