No, he actually means "explicit" in the normal English sense. You're
trying to use it in the python-ideas sense of "code that I like", and
since you don't like it, you want to call it "implicit" instead, but
it obviously isn't that, so you call it "syntactic clutter".

But this is actually a case of explicit vs implicit.
