According to Guido's Foreword from Programming Python:

  Readability is often enhanced by reducing unnecessary variability.
  When possible, there's single, obvious way to code a particular
  construct.  This reduces the number of the choices facing the
  programmer who is writing the code, and increases the chance that
  it will appear familiar to a second programmer reading it.

I guess he loves reducing variablity, if possible, which is totally
against TMTOWTDI.  I don't judge whether it is good or bad.
