I'm going to float this here, just to make sure it's considered...
`format()` allows positional and named kwargs in format strings:
"First, thou shalt count to {0}" # References first positional argument
"Bring me a {}" # Implicitly references the first
positional argument
"From {} to {}" # Same as "From {0} to {1}"
"My quest is {name}" # References keyword argument 'name'
"Weight in tons {0.weight}" # 'weight' attribute of first positional
arg
"Units destroyed: {players[0]}" # First element of keyword argument
'players'.
Are these *never* useful?
Certainly 99% of cases can be handled as cleanly (or more so, because I
guess we fell `format()` is a little verbose) with %-formatting or an
f-string.
But if we say format() is not allowed, don't we then guarantee we hit the
one case in X where "Actually, this version with format() is much cleaner"?
