[issue31597] ipaddress.hosts() doesn't return anything on a /32 "network"

Lord Anton Hvornum added the comment:

Historically Windows have struggled with /32 assigned networks.
Trying to push such a network address to a Windows machine has usually (not
all cases) rendered it connection-less, where as switches, routers, *nix
etc have never had any major issues with the logic of a /32 network host
isolation.

Anyway, it was a slight joke/peck on the history of networking.
