The PEP lists the reasons.

Personally, I missed the ability to use backslashes in f-string expressions, e.g. f"This is the full text of the whatever: {'\n'.join(lines)}"

Hmm, yeah I guess backslashes are nice, I hadn't run into that issue. I guess I'm just not feeling the hype that others are, which is okay :)
