While reading PEP 3104 to understand the
nonlocal
keyword, I found the explanation for why an alternative was not chosen to be vague. Further digging revealed an example for why there was a concern that.x
andx
could be used interchangeably. I linked this example as a footnote to save future readers time from digging to find an example. I hope this will increase comprehension of the PEP for future learners.
