Nonsense. List comprehensions are not immediately obvious to new
Python users. The functionality of 'with' requires an understanding of
context managers. Python's readability has more to do with simplifying
code maintenance.

The idea that Python code has to be obvious to non-programmers is an
incorrect and dangerous one.
