So I have 2 questions -

1. Is there any particular reason why '|' is not supported?

'|' is the set union operation, roughly equivalent to the set.union
method. Dicts don't have a union operation. If they did, and the same
key were found in both sets, what would be the value of that key in
the union?

2. Is there a better way to do what I want?

The dict.items() view is explicitly set-like and can be unioned, so
you can do this:

py> dict(d1.items() | d2.items())

This doesn't work with non-hashable values.

The simplest (and perhaps the most efficient) way in recent Python versions is:

    {**d1, **d2}

In old Python versions this should be written as

    d = dict(d1)
    d.update(d2)
