I'm aware that it's how Python works at present. My point was that this is awkward and counter-intuitive, with no purpose I can see worth serving.

"That's just how it works" seems to me a rather insufficient answer, especially for such a seemingly trivial change.

So, no, it's not technically a bug. But I think it's worth some discussion.
