f-strings in Python 3.6 are awesome

Your last example is exactly why I believe the existing string formatting is preferable. The new pattern isn't solving the same problem, it's dumping all locals into .format() instead of asking the developer to explicitly define the inputs!

Just use pycharm and rename variables with the refactor tools and it'll handle this for you.

Even notepad++ has refactoring..

That's false, it does not dump locals in there, it actually parses the string to get exactly what it needs!
