(Currently the grammar is usually listed first, and the author of the prose is tempted to assume that the reader has parsed and understood it.)\n\nPRs merged for this before opening this issue:\n\n- #131468\n- #131474\n- #132407\n\n\u003c!-- gh-linked-prs --\u003e\n### Linked PRs\n* gh-134850\n* gh-135677\n* gh-135942\n* gh-137048\n* gh-137469\n* gh-137713\n* gh-138194\n* gh-138457\n* gh-139781\n* gh-140464\n* gh-142015\n* gh-142227\n\u003c!-- /gh-linked-prs --\u003e\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/encukou","@type":"Person","name":"encukou"},"datePublished":"2025-06-18T14:12:35.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/135676/cpython/issues/135676"}
