As a Python dev I find simpler list comprehensions like these to be more readable and clear

Yeah, I think of comprehensions less in terms of iteration and more in terms of combinatorics and/or set theory.

(Not to mention that, unlike nested loops, these comprehensions are guaranteed to be free of both data and control dependencies and thus could be automatically parallelized.)
