If a dictionary key has a Python list as its value, you can read the values
one by one in the list using a for-loop like in the following.

d = {k: [1,2,3]}

No tutorial describes this, why?
What is the Python explanation for this behaviour?

Sorry... why is this a surprise? If an object is iterable, you can iterate over it.

>>> d = {'key': [1, 2, 3]}
>>> type(d['key'])
<class 'list'>
>>> val = d['key']
>>> type(val)
<class 'list'>
>>> for v in val:
...     print(v)
...
...
1
2
3
