I agree.  It's even uglier that "," doesn't form a zero-length tuple.  
Thus you get:

tuple0 = ()
tuple1 = 1,

So, is it parens that form tuples, or commas?  I guess There's More Than 
One Way To Do It :-)

My personal choice would have been angle brackets, i.e. <1, 2, 3>.  
Then, <1> would have been a length-1 tuple with no ambiguity.

tuple0 = <>
tuple1 = <1>
tuple2 = <1, 2>

But it's way too late for that now.  Maybe in P3K?
