It has a negative impact on readability.

It's ugly.

It modifies a declaration outside the declaration.

It feels unpythonic.

Of course these are subjective responses, and my weighting of the
importance of these complaints may not match yours. From the comments
in this newsgroup, I don't have the feeling that I'm alone in some or
all of these criticisms.
