[issue44741] Pattern Matching - star subpattern with a subject derived from collections.abc.Sequence

[Pierre Quentel]

Pierre Quentel <pierre.quentel at gmail.com> added the comment:

I found why len() is required, it's to avoid trying to match the subject (thus consuming a part of it) if its length is less than the number of non-star patterns, as explained in the PEP.

My mistake, sorry.
