In Section 8.6 ("Function definitions"; https://docs.python.org/3/reference/compound_stmts.html#function-definitions), the definition of "parameter_list" looks slightly wrong:
parameter_list ::= defparameter ("," defparameter)* "," "/" ["," [parameter_list_no_posonly]] | parameter_list_no_posonly
The "/" (and the comma preceding it) is not a required component. (Sorry, I'm afraid I'm not smart enough right now to suggest a correction. :-p )

I *think* that another bracket pair is needed, changing "," "/" to ["," "/"] |

I think is correct:
parameter_list ::= defparameter ("," defparameter)* "," "/" ["," [parameter_list_no_posonly]] | parameter_list_no_posonly
Says "a parameter_list" is either:
defparameter ("," defparameter)* "," "/" ["," [parameter_list_no_posonly]]
or
parameter_list_no_posonly
If you don't use the "/" then is the second option.
Feel free to reopen if I am missing something.

After mentally reparsing and translating to English, I think you are right. |

I concur -- it is correct as it is: I wasn't properly interpreting the alternation. Thank you for your attention; sorry for the false alarm! |
