I am not sure about "Python3" (never used it), but in Python 2,
the simple list comprehension "[x for x in l]" is roughly equivalent to:
result = []
for x in l: result.append(x)
... the list comprehension result is in "result" which (however) is not
bound ...
In Python 3, "x" might not be bound as well - to harmonise list comprehension
with generator expressions (and avoid the confusion, that a local
(temporary) binding can change the value of a global binding).
