Originally I would have said why not allow them, it's a potentially useful generalisation. But Nick's examples pretty clearly demonstrate that there are a lot of unclear edge cases involved, and even though "prevent people writing ugly code" is explicitly stated as a non-goal in the PEP, that doesn't mean it's OK to allow an obvious bug magnet with no clear use cases.
