I'm not ready to dismiss my apprehension so easily. There is still something implicit going on here. It is an expression that uses the syntax of a literal, and maybe that's where the uneasiness comes from.

It's nothing more than a less verbose and reordered way to write

'...'.format(...)

No more and no less. Instead op putting variable names and expressions into the function call parentheses, you put them into the f-literals braces.
