Oh yeah, the reason lists don't allow the starred expression has nothing to do with the starred expression itself, it's syntactically correct and in your case a[1, *[2, 3], 4] is equivalent to a[1, 2, 3, 4]. The "problem" is that lists do not allow indexing by tuples.
Perhaps the title of this issue should be changed to reflect that: "Allow lists to be indexed by tuples"
