> Wait I don't understand why you wouldn't accept a wholesale replacement of all `%` and `format` with f-strings through the entire CPython codebase [master branch]?

For such a large change it's difficult to review every single change and ensure it's correct. I'm guessing there are thousands of occurrences.

In addition, it runs the risk of breaking any existing pull requests.

And in the vast majority of cases it wouldn't make any noticeable performance difference. So why risk the breakage and endure the hassle?
