No. The primary argument is between keeping the print statement and doing something else; only when "doing something else" is rejected we should concentrate on smaller improvements to the statement.

I don't think there's anything that can change my mind about dropping the statement. I have my preferences about the replacement too, but that's where I need others to weigh in so we make sure all the important use cases are covered. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
