I also really don't like the subject line. "Do not require string 
escapes within expressions in f-literals" more accurately represents the 
topic and the suggestion.

"Let's make <anything> impossible" is just asking for a highly 
emotionally-charged discussion, which is best avoided in basically all 
circumstances, especially for less-frequent contributors to a community, 
and extra-especially when you haven't met most of the other contributors 
in person.

Cheers,
Steve
