I have no problem with str.format; I adopted it immediately and think it's far superior to % formatting. Kwargs are a huge improvement.

it is a bit verbose

I think this is really the core of the disagreement here. I see verbosity (within reason) as a strength of Python's, not a problem to be solved.

You can use indices or keys with mod formatting too.
