I'm not sure why you would encounter code like that in the first place.
Surely any code of the form:
''.join(c for c in my_string)
would just return my_string? Or am I missing something?
Good question. Anything useful like "'-'.join(c for c in 'abc')" is the
same as "'-'.join('abc'). The same, as far as I can think of, for
anything like list() or set() taking an iterable arg.
