[issue32617] dict.update does not concat/replace if same key

[Eric V. Smith]

Eric V. Smith <eric at trueblade.com> added the comment:

I'm sorry the name is confusing to you, but this behavior is correct, and how dict.update is defined:

https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/stdtypes.html#dict.update

As such, it cannot be changed.

If you want a function that merges values, you'll need to write it yourself.

Eric.
