The problem isn't that anything's missing, it's that there's too 
much there in the first place. DIP 1036 is essentially two 
separate string interpolation proposals (the .idup version and 
the tuple version) awkwardly stitched together, and the presence 
of the stitching makes both of them worse than either would be on 
its own.
