I am sticking with my opinion from before: the code should be fixed.  It doesn't look like assignment to me.

I am fine with making this a "feature" only fixed in 3.4.  (You can even fix the docs in 3.3 as long as you fix them back for 3.4.)

Minor note for Ezio: dict(k=v, ...) doesn't have this problem because k is just a keyword, not an expression.
