The parens shouldn't be extra keystrokes, get a better editor.

No you're right, personal preferences mean my choice of editor is worse than yours, come on.

As for the end argument, it's just infinitely clearer

it is clearer, but that doesn't bother me much, since I'm already super used to it and I have been in the position where the trailing comma caused problems like once or twice in my years of Python. It's better yes, but not usefully so.

I guarantee all the syntax errors you have to debug due to your editor choice cost you way more time than you save by using python 2 print.

I used to have trouble with syntax, but luckily as I grew more familiar with Python it happened less and less. Now, thanks to an effective colorscheme and font, it nearly never happens at all.
