What is the idiomatic way to write the right side of

(not worried about the parens, just the splitting of the sequence)


that way is fine. Although usually it don't use parens and 0 is omitted...

a, b = l[:2], l[2:]

In python, direct index access is generally avoided whenever it is still possible to use for or other constructs (but practical beats purity, choose whatever method that produce a code that looks good and performs good enough)
