I disagree. It took me longer than I'd like to admit to track down the file history and understand it. I'd like to prevent other people from having to try and understand why it works this way.
On the other hand, it looks like people have discovered it:
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/tutor/2012-August/090891.html
so getting rid of it isn't so simple.
If we are going to keep it, we should add a test for it (which actually might exist, I haven't checked yet).
